The Republican Heard Survey Results

The weekly e-mail of the Connecticut Republican Party, The Republican Heard, included a survey last week about general conservative/liberal attitudes. As always, these results are not scientific and are not statistically valid. The results do not represent the official position of the Connecticut Republican Party. These are interim results. The final resuls will be posted on Thursday.
