Since the General Assembly is nearly a month overdue on passing the budget (the only thing they are technically required to do), we asked voters this month if they thought that legislators should forgo their paychecks if they miss the July 1 deadline of completing a new budget.
65% said they should give up their pay. Only 27% said no.
What’s most interesting is the group with the highest percentage supporting is government employees at 75 percent. I guess they’re still feeling a little jilted over the whole furlough thing, eh?
Full results and crosstabs here.
