3 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll Georgia s State of the State Poll (GSSP) is a statewide general survey of adults, age 18 and over, who are residents of the state of Georgia. The GSSP survey was conducted for the first time in spring of 214 and included a combination of community, governmental, economic and special topical issue questions. Demographic data (age, location, gender, race, education, political ideology and income) offers additional information. A central aspect of public policymaking is the need for relevant, timely and accurate information. The GSSP will make a significant contribution to effective planning by engaging the state s citizenry and increasing the understanding of various issues among policymakers and their constituents. The goals of the GSSP are to: Gain a better understanding of resident attitudes and perceptions on key social, economic and political issues; Educate Georgians about various issues facing the state; Contribute to a statewide conversation; and Inform current policy debates in order to improve the socioeconomic well-being of the state s residents. We would like to thank the Office of the Provost and the Office of the College of Arts and Sciences Dean for their support of this project. Several faculty in the Department of Government and Sociology offered feedback on an earlier version of the survey; Brandy Kennedy, Jason Rich, Claire Sanders and Clif Wilkinson. Johnny Grant, director of community engagement and economic development at Georgia College, contributed to this project by providing critical insights on the instrument and by sharing his deep understanding of key issues facing the state. Finally, we would like to thank Lauren Crapo, graduate student in the MPA program and Erin Crisp and Katherine Hendley, undergraduate students in the political science program, for their assistance with data analysis.

5 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll executive Summary The Department of Government and Sociology at Georgia College has conducted its first Georgia s State of the State Poll to find out about key issues facing the state and information about our political leaders. The survey was conducted by SSI, a national research leader in this area, from Feb. 5-18, 214. The margin of error for the weighted sample is +/- 4.4 percentage points. among the respondents, the key highlights are: Georgians are optimistic about the direction of the state. Jobs, education and health care are the three most important issues facing the state. For minority residents, the issues of race and immigration are additional concerns. Georgians do not expect significant changes in the economy during the coming year and would like to see greater effort on the economic development front. Gov. Nathan Deal (Republican) and former Gov.Roy Barnes (Democrat) are the two politicians Georgians trust most. The majority of Georgians are greatly dissatisfied with public education and would be willing to invest more money to improve the system. Democrats have a slight advantage over Republicans to lead the state in the next four years. A little over half of Georgians blame both the executive and legislative branches of government in Washington, D.C. for the recent federal shutdown (Oct. 1-16, 213), followed by the president, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives. A strong majority of Georgians oppose the use of public funds to support professional stadium facilities (e.g. Atlanta Falcons/Atlanta Braves). Over half of Georgians oppose the decision to decline Medicaid expansion. Most Georgians strongly oppose the ObamaCare: Affordable Care Act. One-third of Georgians report being impacted by recent cuts in state programs and services, with women being most affected. Georgians support the deepening of the Savannah Port. 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll 3

33 Survey Methodology The 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll was a telephone survey of randomly selected adults in the state of Georgia. Five hundred (5) Georgia adults were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between Feb. 5 and Feb. 18, 214. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 4.4%. This survey was conducted through the use of Random Digit Dialing (RDD). A sample of households in the area was selected via random digit dialing. The random sample used in the 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll was provided by SSI. SSI screens each selected telephone number to eliminate non-working numbers, disconnected numbers, and business numbers to improve the efficiency of the sample, reducing the amount of time interviewers spend calling non-usable numbers. Each of these randomly generated telephone numbers is contacted by one of SSI interviewers. This selection process ensures that every adult (18 years of age or older) in the household has an equally likely chance of being included in the survey. Interviews were completed with 5 randomly selected adults in Georgia from a sample of 12,725 randomly selected telephone numbers. The data have been weighted to account for known biases of telephone surveys. The results presented here have been weighted to reflect current population demographics as reflected in the most recent available Census data. The data in the 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll are weighted by the number of adults to equalize the chances that any one adult would be selected for inclusion. The data are also weighted by respondent sex, age and race. In addition to providing results for the state as a whole, some findings also are broken down by the four major regions of the state: North, Middle, South and Atlanta metropolitan area. The map illustrates the counties in each region. 214 Georgia s State of the State Poll 31
