[Number of the Day: 57 percent of voters say protecting free speech more important than preventing spread of misinformation]

** WELCOME TO THE NUMBER OF THE DAY
------------------------------------------------------------
** DECEMBER 1, 2020
------------------------------------------------------------

Fifty-seven percent (57%) of voters nationwide believe that protecting free speech so that all voices and opinions can be heard is more important than limiting free speech to prevent the spread of misinformation. A _PoliticalIQ_ survey conducted by Scott Rasmussen found that 31% take the opposite view and believe preventing the spread of misinformation is more important. Twelve percent (12%) are not sure.[1] ([link removed])

A majority of every measured demographic group but one sees protecting free speech as more important. The sole exception is government employees who are fairly evenly divided. Fifty percent (50%) of those on the public payroll say preventing the spread of misinformation is more important, while 44% say protecting free speech is the higher priority.[1] ([link removed])

By a 59% to 30% margin, private-sector workers believe protecting free speech is more important. Among retirees, 59% see free speech as more important, while 34% take the opposite view.[1] ([link removed])
