Half the respondents to the poll said they favor paying more to restore education spending cuts, which have led to teacher furloughs and layoffs and other forms of cost-cutting.
In the statewide poll released Friday, 50 percent of those asked said they favor raising taxes or fees to restore the cuts, while 39 percent were opposed and 11 percent were undecided.
The poll of 625 likely voters was conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc. of Washington, D.C. from July 8 through July 13, and paid for by 13 daily newspapers with readership across Georgia. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points, meaning there is a 95 percent chance the actual number would fall in that range.
