Save the Children Action Network commissioned a bipartisan polling team to conduct survey research among general election voters in five states to gauge their opinions about early childhood education and early intervention policies. In addition to general election voters, SCAN conducted interviews among both Democratic and Republican primary voters. The results showed that legislators and candidates looking for issues with broad appeal that can meaningfully improve the lives of their constituents should invest in our youngest learners and early intervention programs.
Below is the breakdown of the polling results by state. More will be added as they become available.
