POLL: Voters Reject Biden Vaccine Mandate, Support Governors Stepping up to Block It
Strong Majorities of Independents, Republicans Oppose Biden Mandate, Believe it Creates Dangerous Precedent Which Could be Abused by Future Presidents
(Austin, TX—Sept 13, 2021) Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018 and 2020—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted September 10th through September 12th of over 1,000 likely 2022 election voters.
“The numbers are clear, the American people passionately oppose Biden’s vaccine mandate, and will not tolerate a President elected by the people acting like a dictator or king. They know full well that this precedent will quickly lead to an end to our Republic and the beginning of an oppressive new tyranny,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States Action. “Our citizens stand squarely with courageous, principled governors who know this isn’t about health, science, or compassion, it’s a naked political power grab.”
