Well over three-quarters of Americans would support a nationwide mask mandate, a Hill-HarrisX survey revealed on Monday.
The survey, taken July 26-27 among 948 registered voters, asked, “Would you support or oppose a national mandate to wear a face mask?”
A hefty majority, 82 percent, said they would support such a mandate. Only 18 percent opposed. Of the 82 percent, 61 percent said they would “strongly” support the measure, and 21 percent said they would “somewhat” support it.
Voters appear to be united on the issue across various age groups, races, and party lines. A majority of Republicans, 66 percent, indicated they would support a nationwide mask mandate, as did 85 percent of independents and 93 percent of Democrats.

‘But how many support a never-ending mandate?’
based on what I see in this forum, a lot of them...
Mustve polled Staples customers and liver transplantees.
Are these the same polls that predicted Hillary winning in 2016?
Pollsters are basically domestic terrorists putting crap like this out.
.000001% of the population polled, and the headline is “86% of the country supports X”
masks are useless

BS!
I wear a mask on the way to work alone in my car. I have to have one on to get in to work and go from there.
Compliance conditioning for microchipping.
The leftist mayors and governors are not going to willingly give us back our freedom. If we want it back, we are going to have to take it.
It’s pretty obvious by now that masks do nothing.
The thing about this idea of a national mandate is I remember Democrats and the fake news attacking Trump early on saying he can't dictate our response which is why his administration has released guidelines and put the onus on governors & local communities to do the right thing. He then got attacked for not taking responsibility. (Of course.)
That’s assuming you will cough or sneeze on someone AND are within 6 feet of them.
total BS!
I dont believe you could get 82% of the people to agree the world is round!
You're no different than a Democrat or spoiled child who breaks things and points fingers at someone else.
How often are you within 6 feet of someone? I am. Much of my day, every day, at work.
That’s always a good argument: others do it, so should you.
Conform, comply, group norming, group acceptance, that’s the “science” behind the American burka.

‘Masks are not an “assault on our freedom”
what crap...being refused service in an essential marketplace for ‘improper’ usage of a needless piece of cloth is not an assault on my freedom exactly how...? the marketplace doing so is discriminating against me for a marginally existent reason...and the marketplace cites the government protocols as guidance, so governmental pressure dictates the discrimination...
‘And if we reduce spread..we get our economy back quicker.’
man, you really, really don’t get it, do you...? you’re as dumb as these college kids hectoring us to ‘wear your masks so we can have a football season...’ you think for one minute that wearing masks is going to magically get the governors to let their feet off our necks...? why do you think the goal of ‘flattening the curve’ morphed into ‘no cases whatsoever, anywhere, anytime...? Eh...? So we could get our normal lives back when the curve was in fact flattened...?
one last thing; since you’re such a fan of these filthy cloths, do you feel it your duty to rat on the miscreants you see ‘misusing’ them; like for wearing them under the nose, like I did at a store and had some old bitch rat me out...is that your game..?
