This is not what Fox News was expecting.
A national exit poll from the network on Tuesday found that 72% of Americans favor changing to a government-run health care plan. Just look:
Just as we’ve said all along, Medicare for All is one of the most popular political proposals in the country. But in order to turn this popular support into momentum in Congress, we need you to be a key part of this next chapter.
We’re not surprised by these results. Few are willing to argue that our current health care system is moral, just, or effective. It could not be more clear that people in this country are sick and tired of our current for-profit system. Polling shows time and time again that they support guaranteeing health care nationally. It’s time our politicians follow suit.
We are eagerly waiting for every vote to be counted, but we know that Joe Biden is on the path to be the next President – along with a slate of new leaders in Congress. We need to make it clear from day one that Medicare for All is a top priority for the public.
Hope to see you there.
