Of course FOX tried to bury this in the weekend.
And last, the big surprise…

lol the best part of this is that their base will rage on them for this due to their own misinformation, poetic.

The REAL question they are afraid to ask
Nacon
I'm still waiting to see what percentage of the death from Covid were actually Republican voters.
IsThisNotPinterest
I'm probably missing something, but why don't the totals add up to 100?
zxwaffen
Because there are always some people who get polled who respond with answers that can't be shown or do not respond.
RobBobertyYT
And this is a fox poll which means it trends stupid.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
I guess Rupert Murdoch has decided he's OK with masks and vaccines now? How nice of him, he's such a magnanimous overlord.

Goodbye herd immunity.

Fox News polling is separate from Fox News. It's pretty reliable.

"Antifa and BLM have infiltrated Fox News!" -Breitbart probably
UrethraFrankIin
Honestly, OAN is far-right, more right than Fox, and they scoop up the kind of mongoloids who see this and think "Fox is now for DemocRATS!"
thewhereiankelly
30% of America is sooo soooo stupid
ThomasTheWankEngine3
better than i expected. that vaccine not safe % is dropping daily
IMayNotKnowWhatIAmTalkingAbout
Why... why dont the numbers add up to 100?
DrivingTheBus
That's actually pretty typical. "I don't know" is sometimes a choice, or maybe some people didn't answer certain questions.
ATribeofAfricanNatives
I want you all to remember that the Nazis, at the height of their popularity, only won 37% of the vote. Don't write this group of people off
Syninfection
Foxnews actually being reasonable........ THE END IS NIGH!
Gutpilegutezeit
They learned from California. 81% voted because of covid. If the recall had been closer, the narrative wouldn't have changed.
WhatDoesItAllMeanMrNatural
It's not about the science, never was, never will be. It's about the GOP dickin' the dummies to hold on to power and money. Drive on.
Mobouncetotheoz
Trying to listen to conservative radio to understand the mindset more, they released local polls w/similar numbers. The hosts dismissed as
Mobouncetotheoz
1) polls lie/are inaccurately counted. 2) people say what they think the poll people want to hear/are afraid to say what they really think.
Mobouncetotheoz
Couldn't just be the most probable reason that people are actually mostly all in agreement about the virus? Nope couldn't be thaaat
bushpotato
So it IS republicans who are the dumb fucks. Who could have guessed.

Did they poll unaffiliated people?
kakivara
The article links to the study. You can read about the methodology and see the complete data set.

What is the missing percentage of all these numbers? Decline to answer?
FellaWithUmbrella
Yes. https://static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2021/09/Fox_September-12-15_National_Topline_September-19-Release.pdf

Thank you
Seanspeed
It should be noted that Fox News actually has top flight political polling and election teams.
graehall
And if you work at Fox News you need to be vaccinated and show evidence. The anti-vaxx bs is just a shitty deadly grift killing off GOP folk
terramarkov
I'm really surprised that they published their results
IThinkIGotMySwaggerBack
Yeah but anybody that watches fox news probably doesn't understand how percentages work
mrgreen326
Imagine what the numbers would be on CNN if they're this fucking high on fox
evolution4407
1/2 A&W had a third pound burger in the 80's. Then McDonald's did their own third pounder in 2007. Both times the burgers failed to sell.
evolution4407
2/2 Turns out that people though that a third was smaller than a quarter. They asked why they should pay the same for a third as a quarter.
DukeDarkwood
I would ask if I could trade a quarter for one-third of a dollar.
siegfriedwatson
They won't look at what they mean, they just see 'Democrats voted yes in high percentage, so it's wrong! *outrage!*' *sigh*
KillingTlme
28% of Americans are willing to let others die because they are ignorant.
Orzufancylad
Yeh, Americans.
azazyel
Fox news doesn't either
MektaSatakOz
Glory be, that's a Very leading selection of answers
jeremiahblatz
I mean, they did though. (The ones who were paid by the oil & gas companies.)
iamthisguy247
We asked 100 people, but if they were white and male we counted them twice…
MrRandom314159
That's not misunderstanding percentages, that's deliberate mis-wording of the survey.
MrRandom314159
Honestly, they probably put it on a scale of 1-5 and messed up the buckets, choosing something like only 1 is "Not Likely"
MrRandom314159
Then 3-5 is "Very Likely", and "2-3" as "Somewhat Likely", when it was only supposed to be 2.

And remember: 67% of the legislature is enough for a constitutional amendment.
CyclopticColleague
For the 1st, or proposal, step, yes. It must then be ratified by either 3/4 of state legislatures or 3/4 of state constitutional conventions
FakePlasticTreehugger
If only the legislature actually represented the people... Like even slightly...
PithyCommentBelow
Cmon. Don’t bring that attitude in here. They do represent the people. The people who bought them with corporate campaign contributions.
Sandyundertones
The second problem is that it is much easier to stop something from happening than to get it to happen.
Sandyundertones
Legislators absolutely represent the people of their district. The problem is that a significant number of people are dogshit.
TheLordFoxington
Fox polls are actually pretty well rated as fair and accurate polling.
DecisionLivid
shhh, can't let the snowflakes understand that every news channel has ther pros and cons
TheLordFoxington
As one of those snowflakes , why the fuck do you use that phrase when it seems like everybody who uses it is particularly touchy themselves.
FellaWithUmbrella
Yes, but they bury them in the weekends, if the results don’t fit in their narrative. You won’t see these in FOX & Friends, Carlson etc.

It's actually kinda nice that of the 31% who opposed mask mandates 28% apparently don't believe that masks work. Which makes some sense.
