This is a disingenuous poll, in that it lumps all possible requirements into “a mandate.” The specific question was: “Do you believe taking COVID vaccines should be mandatory, or should taking the vaccine be a personal choice?”
That’s a useless question, since very few people are ever going to support the government forcibly injecting people. They didn’t ask the much more useful questions, like support for employer mandates, retail/restaurant mandates, permitting companies to mandate but not a government policy, and the other realistic choices.
If you’re thinking “Why would someone conduct a poll with a useless question like that?” it’s because the poll was paid for by https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Convention_of_States_A... . They’re aiming for a low headline number and designed a poll question to deliver that.
