Questions - Washington Governor - September 26, 2012

Washington Survey of 500 Likely Voters

Conducted September 26, 2012

By Rasmussen Reports

*Please note that we split the survey to rotate the order of the candidates, so while half will hear the Republican first, the other half hears the Democrat mentioned first.

1* If the 2012 election for governor of Washington were held today would you vote for Republican Rob McKenna or Democrat Jay Inslee?

2* I’m going to read you a short list of people in the news. For each, please let me know if you have a very favorable, somewhat favorable, somewhat unfavorable, or very unfavorable impression.

Rob McKenna
Jay Inslee

3* This November an initiative will be on the ballot that would remove state-law prohibitions against producing, processing, and selling marijuana, subject to licensing and regulation by the liquor control board.  If the election were held today, would you vote for or against this initiative?

4* How would you rate the job Chris Gregoire has been doing as governor… do you strongly approve, somewhat approve, somewhat disapprove, or strongly disapprove of the job she’s been doing?

NOTE: Margin of Sampling Error, +/- 4.5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence
