Majority of Texans back COVID-19 vaccine, mask mandates: poll
The Hill ^ | 11/09/2021 | MAUREEN BRESLIN

Posted on 11/09/2021 7:26:04 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

A new poll from the University of Texas and the Texas Tribune indicates that the majority of people in the state support schools and indoor places requiring masks as well as allowing businesses to issue vaccine mandates.

The survey of 1,200 people showed that 57 percent of Texas voters support masking in indoor locations in the state, reports The Texas Tribune, and finds that 58 percent back masking requirements in schools. Forty percent opposed the indoor masking requirements and 39 percent opposed masking in schools.

Texas has emerged as a ground zero in the debate over masks and vaccines, with Texas joining other states in suing the Biden administration over its vaccine-or-testing mandate for businesses with at least 100 employees.

Does ANYBODY believe polls anymore? They are simply another branch of governmental propaganda.

Do these poll results even matter?

It’s your body, not theirs.

So do I! ;-)

We already know that the communist media lies about absolutely everything they say. Why bother to believe anything they say?

I find the poll totally believable, considering the demographics of the large cities in Texas.

I was at the Domain a couple of weekends ago and saw very few masks being worn.

Well, Austin and maybe Houston and Dallas, but most of the other cities would rather be free, I would think.

Just a bunch of lies, or they polled a bunch of Covidians in the cities. Either way, USELESS information at best, but really, it’s a propaganda “push” poll. The Left is desperate to force Texas and Florida to suck down the witches’ brews they call “vaccines”.

They obviously polled urban centers and then depicted that as a “sample” of Texans. Also, phone polls tend to be skewed toward the grifters in society, with nothing better to do. And grifters are authoritarian.

Did you or anyone you know take part in this poll?

As usual, no.

If there was any truth to this poll, which I doubt, this would be a serious harbinger for the Nation’s future ability to ever throw off the chains of tyranny under which we currently subsist...
