Two-Thirds Of Public Supports A Public Option For Insurance
The charts above are from a recent Kaiser Family Foundation Poll -- done between February 13th and 18th of a national sample of 1,207 adults, with a 3 point margin of error.
The poll shows that health care is the biggest issue for voters in this election -- with 26% saying that. About 23% said the economy, 14% said climate change, and 13 % said foreign policy/national security.
The second chart shows that Obamacare remains popular with a majority of Americans (55%), while only 37% oppose it. This is trouble for Republicans (who are currently still trying to have it overturned in the courts, and have no replacement for it).
But Americans don't believe Obamacare is the answer. They want better coverage, and they want it for all American citizens. About 52% think that better solution is a Medicare-For-All program, but that pales in comparison to the 66% who prefer a public option for health insurance.
