Climate/Clean Energy Issues in the 2010 Election: Survey to Show if Tea Party Supporters and Independents Are Really on the Same Page
While Much Media Coverage Assumes Little Daylight Exists Between Tea Party and Independents on These Key 2010 Issues, Poll to Detail Extent to Which Climate/Clean Energy Views Are Actually Aligned.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Are Tea Party supporters and Independent voters of the same mind when it comes to climate and clean energy issues? Or, is there more diversity in views about these issues among those who are not traditional Republicans and Democrats?
With the 2010 elections in which Tea Party and Independent voters will play a key role just one week away, these questions will be addressed in a major new survey of more than 800 likely voters conducted by Opinion Research Corporation for the nonprofit and nonpartisan Civil Society Institute (CSI). The survey findings will be released and discussed during a phone-based national news event at 1:30 p.m. EDT Tuesday (October 26, 2010).
News event speakers will include:
- Pam Solo, founder and president, Civil Society Institute; and
- Opinion Research Corporation Senior Researcher Graham Hueber

CSI has released more than 25 national and state-specific surveys and reports since 2003 on a wide range of energy and climate issues. CSI does not endorse candidates.
