Poll Shows the ACA Still Divided Among Americans
In a seven state health care poll conducted by NPR and its associates, the results provided a multi-tiered outlook on the effects of the Affordable Care Act.
The results indicate a split in perspective, where adults felt the ACA either benefited others or did nothing. Only a quarter indicated it posed a negative effect, a third indicated it helped others in their state, while 35% indicated optimism that affordable health care directly benefited them.
Polls like these arrive with the caveat that many of those polled offer perspectives that are not always personal, allowing for a definitive margin of error. However, an upswing in positive results prove that while the ACA passing is still relatively new (less than ten years old), there is still room for progress.
The poll included approximately 1,000 individuals via phone in New Jersey, Wisconsin, Ohio, Florida, Kansas, and Texas from September 8, 2015 to November 9, 2015.
