National Polling Summary

Welcome to the Anzalone Liszt Research National Polling Summary, a quick look at national public polls detailing key political environmental measures as well as attitudes of voters on the pressing issues of the week.

New polls released by Gallup and Zogby illustrate that a sizeable majority of Americans support stronger financial regulations against Wall Street. Seventy percent (70%) of voters stated that they favored regulating banks that threatened the rest of the financial sector, while 63% said that the government should crack down on pay packages.

We have also seen one of the earliest polls on Supreme Court nominees. A recent CNN poll tells us that 62% of Americans think that President Obama should nominate a liberal to moderate justice to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens.

Also, be sure to check out John's recent interview with Politics Magazine.

We hope you enjoy!
