Bartow GOP Question Results
The following questions were on the Republican Primary ballot on July 15
 
1.  The two top countries that import oil to the United State are Mexico and Canada.  Seven foreign companies have signed exploration agreements with Cuba to drill in the Gulf of Mexico.  Drilling for oil in Alaska could reduce American oil imports by about 15%.  Should Congress allow drilling in the National Refuge in Alaska and off the coast of Florida?
 
Yes  7561  90.89%
 
No  758  9.11%
 
2.  Currently 1% of the Georgia Tax on fuel goes to the general fund.   Georgia has over a $1,000,000,000 in surplus.  Rather than raising taxes through a T-SPLOST or something similar, do you support sending all the fuel tax to transportation?
 
Yes  6409  78.56%
 
No  1749  21.44%
 
3.  Should the United States secure its borders and enforce its current immigration laws?
 
Yes  8229  97.55%
 
No  207  2.45%
 
Please note:  question #3 received more votes than any other item on the ballot in all of Bartow County
 
4.  From July 2007 to January 2008, Cobb County's Sheriff's office booked 3,495 foreign-born people into his jail. ICE placed an immigration "hold" on 1,357 of those and has picked up more than 750 illegal aliens for possible deportation proceedings. Would you support hiring three additional deputies for Bartow County to be able to hold illegal aliens for deportation by ICE?
 
Yes  7335  88.25%
 
No  977  11.75%
 

5.  Would you support a government run, rationed health care system similar to that in Europe and Canada?
 
Yes  1990  24.29%
 
No  6204  75.71%
 
6.  Do you support eliminating the Georgia income tax?
 
Yes  6464  78.25%
 
No  1797  21.75%
 
7.  Do you support eliminating the Federal income tax?

No  2014  24.65%
