"Voters in 2014 Swing States Favor EPA Carbon Rules"

"Voters in swing states are more likely to favor the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed carbon pollution standards for power plants, according to a new poll funded by the League of Conservation Voters."



"Roughly 74 percent of voters support the proposed carbon regulations — and 58 percent of those were Republican voters in states where Senate seats are up for grabs come 2014.

The 1,113 surveyed are "likely voters" in the 2014 election cycle. Seven of the 11 states went to Republican nominee Mitt Romney in the 2012 election and the other four states went to President Obama."
