45% Want Their Governor To Oppose Implementation of Health Care Law

As the countdown continues to full implementation of President Obama’s national health care law, voters are still evenly divided over whether they want their governor to help make the law a reality in their state.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 43% of Likely U.S. Voters would like their governor to support the implementation of the health care law in their state. But slightly more (45%) prefer instead that their governor oppose implementation of the law. Twelve percent (12%) remain undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
