    According to a recent survey conducted by Garin-Hart-Yang Research Group of 503 likely Maryland voters, Question 4, which would allow some undocumented immigrant students to pay in-state tuition at state colleges, has strong support that has remained consistent over time. The September 2012 survey found 60% of respondents support Question 4, slightly higher than the 57% support found in March 2012. Question 4 currently has strong support across Maryland voters, including 57% of white voters and 75% of African American voters. The survey suggests Question 4 will likely be affirmed by voters in November's election.

    MEMORANDUM
    TO: FROM: DATE: RE: Educating Maryland Kids Garin-Hart-Yang Research Group September 20, 2012 Recent statewide survey on Question 4

    From September 14 to 16, 2012, Garin-Hart-Yang interviewed a representative statewide sample of 503 likely Maryland voters (margin of error +4.5 percentage points). Our survey results show that Question 4 is well positioned to be affirmed by a comfortable majority this November, garnering support from three-fifths of the Maryland electorate:

    Vote on Dream Act Referendum


    Vote for Vote against Undecided

    57%

    60%

    26% 17%

    26% 14%

    March 2012

    September 2012

    Several notable insights about the polling data: 1. Support for Question 4 has been remarkably consistent, and the current vote (which uses the official ballot language) that shows 60% of respondents supporting the measure scores slightly higher than the March results when we tested a summary of the legislation. 2. Not only is it encouraging that Question 4 has three-fifths support, but we note that the STRONG support at 43% still outpaces the TOTAL Against vote at 26%, which attests to the depth of the measures backing. 3. Question 4 enjoys strong support throughout the Maryland electorate, garnering close to three-fifths of the vote among white voters and threefourths among African Americans. In fact, support for Question 4 is so broad that even one-third of Romney voters are in favor. In summary, with less than two months remaining until election day, Question 4 has built on its early support and clearly has the momentum to win passage by a comfortable margin.
