Poll: 63% Support ObamaCare Repeal

Support for the repeal of ObamaCare has been hovering between 54% and 58% ever since it was passed. Today it took a jump and for the first time is supported by more than 60% of Americans.

Support for repeal of the new national health care plan has jumped to its highest level ever. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 63% of U.S. voters now favor repeal of the plan passed by congressional Democrats and signed into law by President Obama in March.

Prior to today, weekly polling had shown support for repeal ranging from 54% to 58%.

Currently, just 32% oppose repeal.

The new findings include 46% who Strongly Favor repeal of the health care bill and 25% who Strongly Oppose it.

While opposition to the bill has remained as consistent since its passage as it was beforehand, this marks the first time that support for repeal has climbed into the 60s. It will be interesting to see whether this marks a brief bounce or indicates a trend of growing opposition.

That's a good point, and one to keep in mind.


Opinions are not static, unchanging things... they fluctuate. This 63% result could be a flash-in-the-pan that is never repeated, or it could signal new strength for repeal efforts. The only way to know for sure is to wait and see.
