Scott Rasmussen's Number of the Day for May 10, 2022
The Number of the Day columns published on Ballotpedia reflect the views of the author.
May 10, 2022: Eighty percent (80%) of voters say that individual Americans should be allowed to purchase any health insurance product approved by their state’s health insurance commissioner. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that 9% think they should not, and 12% are not sure.
The survey also found that 45% of voters think that allowing each state to set its own health insurance guidelines would lower the cost of healthcare in America. 27% think it would not lower the cost, and 27% are not sure.
Methodology
The survey of 1,200 registered voters was conducted online by Scott Rasmussen on April 26-27, 2022. Fieldwork for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc. Certain quotas were applied, and the sample was lightly weighted by geography, gender, age, race, education, internet usage, and political party to reasonably reflect the nation’s population of registered voters. Other variables were reviewed to ensure that the final sample is representative of that population.
The margin of sampling error for the full sample is +/- 2.8 percentage points.
Note: Neither Scott Rasmussen, ScottRasmussen.com, nor RMG Research, Inc. have any affiliation with Rasmussen Reports. While Scott Rasmussen founded that firm, he left nearly a decade ago and has had no involvement since that time.
