87% Approve of Reduction Or Elimination of Ad Valorem Tax On Automobiles

An InsiderAdvantage/Majority opinion Survey conducted January 15-16 of 500 adults in Georgia asked:

Q. Do you approve or disapprove of legislation that would reduce or eliminate the ad valorem "tag tax" on automobiles in Georgia:

Approve: 87%
Oppose: 9%
Undecided/Don't Know: 4%

The statewide telephone survey was weighted for age, race, gender, and political affiliation, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.

Analysis: Of all of the tax proposals floated this year, this particular one has the broadest level of support. It was a big winner among Democrats, Republicans, all age groups, and with both males and females. This is most likely due to the fact that it is easy to understand, impacts all ages and races, and appears most likely to be a more immediate tangible manner of tax relief.
