Yo, Senate GOP: New Yorkers Ain’t Dumb

July 1, 2009 by Emmy  

Hardly anyone is buying the whole “reform” story for the June 8 coup: 

76% of registered voters statewide have heard, at least, a good amount about the current chaos in the Senate.  This includes 31% of voters who have heard a great deal about the situation.  And, voters say they just don’t think their elected officials have their best interests at heart.  A whopping 84% of registered voters report that, from what they have heard, the situation is nothing more than a political power play.  

And anger knows no partisanship: 

Seven in ten voters say they are angry about the unrest while 25% say they are not. Again, this feeling crosses party lines.  72% of Democrats and 69% Republicans express this emotion while 66% of non-enrolled voters say the same.
