Maybe I could believe them coming from a right-to-work sunbelt state, but not PA. I think those numbers reflect wishful thinking among Republicans.

What deceptive, loaded, leading and misleading poll questions."effectively ends the ability of employees to hold private ballot elections""violates the long standing tradition of the private ballot and will lead to more job losses in this recession due to the additional burdens on employers"ZERO questions on the pro card check merits. Nothing about how employers coerce employees to prevent unions.I'm sure the Unions or the Dems could run a similarly biased poll to show equally lopsided support for their side.The GOP is putting all it's eggs in one basket with the "private ballot" issue. The compromise bill is going to solve it (one proposal involved a mail-in ballot equivalent to a normal voting absentee ballot). Once this is "fixed", they lose their talking point. Wow. What deceptive, loaded, leading and misleading poll questions.

“effectively ends the ability of employees to hold private ballot elections”

“violates the long standing tradition of the private ballot and will lead to more job losses in this recession due to the additional burdens on employers”

ZERO questions on the pro card check merits. Nothing about how employers coerce employees to prevent unions.

I’m sure the Unions or the Dems could run a similarly biased poll to show equally lopsided support for their side.

The GOP is putting all it’s eggs in one basket with the “private ballot” issue. The compromise bill is going to solve it (one proposal involved a mail-in ballot equivalent to a normal voting absentee ballot). Once this is “fixed”, they lose their talking point.
