MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - A statewide poll of Alabama adults found a
majority supporting gambling if it generates money for schools.
The survey by the Press-Register and the University of South
Alabama Polling Group showed 36 percent supporting gambling that
benefits education and 19 percent supporting gambling regardless of
the purpose. That total of 55 percent compared to 44 percent who
were opposed. The remaining 1 percent did not know.
The director of the USA Polling Group, Keith Nicholls, says the
survey numbers indicate no consensus has formed about gambling in
Alabama.
The random telephone poll was conducted Jan. 12-14 with 430
adults statewide. It had a sampling error margin of 5 percentage
points.
