365足彩下载公报

2015年11月20日

North Carolina likely voters have overwhelmingly positive views of city and town government and the services provided at the local level, 根据365足彩下载最近委托进行的一项民意调查. 365足彩下载党本周公开公布了投票结果, which was conducted in late October by national polling firm McLaughlin & 的同事.

The polling took place to gauge North Carolinians' sentiments regarding their town or city, 市政服务和基础设施的优先事项, and to examine their views regarding city-led economic development and job creation efforts. The poll and its results will be used to help shape a League-led campaign to highlight municipal economic development-focused investments.

The poll findings show that more than two out of three likely voters in North Carolina approve of the job performance of their city or town government. The poll also found that 75 percent of state residents would support giving local government more decision-making authority through so-called home rule.

Other poll results: Seventy-three percent of respondents rated the quality of life in their city or town as excellent or good, while 78 percent stated that they were satisfied with the services and amenities provided in their town or city.

The overwhelmingly positive views cut across political lines and the urban-rural divide in the state. 72%的民主党人, 69 percent of Republicans and 64 percent of Independents gave positive job approval ratings to their city or town government, 而71%的(自认为)城市居民, 70 percent of suburban residents and 67 percent of rural residents viewed the job performance of their city or town positively.

关于地方决策和自治的问题, 77%的共和党人支持实行“地方自治”,” compared to 74 percent of Democrats and 74 percent of Independents.

The poll also examined an issue that could come before the 2016 North Carolina General Assembly – local control of billboards. Asked if the size and location of billboards should be controlled locally or at the state level, 79 percent said those decisions are best made at the local level, 而在州一级,这一比例为16%. An identical percentage of respondents – 79 percent – said billboard owners should not be given the right to compensation that other business owners do not have.

该调查是通过现场电话采访进行的, 调查了600名可能参加大选的选民. 样品的精度在正负4以内.95%置信水平下的0.
