“Obama voters, McCain voters, they just do not see Iraq, Iran and issues like offshore drilling and Cuba the same way,” according to SRI Director, Dr. Don Levy. “In each case the current 25% of voters that are undecided on the presidential race fall between McCain and Obama’s supporters on issues. On Iraq the undecideds are closer to the Obama backers; on offshore drilling and Cuba, they lean towards the McCain supporters.”Seventy-Eight percent of all New Yorkers (91% of McCain backers, 67% of Obama’s) agree that although it is important to help people around the world that are in need, our first priority must be to effectively minimize terrorist threats to our country and its interests. But, only 15% of voters (23% of McCain’s and 10% of Obama’s) support actively spreading democracy to other nations, and 60% (71% of Obama’s, 43% of McCain’s) of New Yorkers do not think the United States should engage in any foreign wars unless part of a broad multi-nation coalition.
