Voters Oppose Obama's Transgender Bathroom Mandate by Wide Margin: Poll

A strong majority of voters disapprove of Barack Obama’s mandate that public schools and universities open their restrooms and private facilities to the opposite sex, according to a new poll.

Voters in the swing states of Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania told Quinnipiac University pollsters they disapproved of the Obama administration’s controversial federal guidance requiring public schools and universities to allow transgender students to use the restrooms, showers, and overnight accommodations of the opposite biological sex or lose federal funding.

Polls found respondents in those three states opposed the measure by an average of 14 percentage points.

In Ohio, 55 percent opposed the Obama administration policy, while 36 percent supported.

Florida voters opposed the measure 54-37. (Read more from “Voters Oppose Obama’s Transgender Bathroom Mandate by Wide Margin: Poll” HERE)
