Poll Report

Americans Speak Out on Research (560k)

Research!America and the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation encourage you to use the 2006 Your Candidates–Your Health Voter Guide to inform your election 2006 reporting. We know this is just one of many tools available to you in covering this fall's elections, but our voter guide is the first such national tool to focus on medical, health and scientific research.

Fourteen years of Research!America public opinion polling have shown how important medical, health and scientific research are to Americans, including your readers, viewers or listeners. Using the unique look-up tools on the home page, you can find the candidates who represent your readers or audience and learn more about their positions on these issues. If a candidate has not responded, you may be interested in asking why. We think you'll find this information useful not only now but also in the future to compare elected officials' actions with their opinions posted here.

Let us know if we can be of assistance in setting up interviews or answering questions about the voter guide or our poll findings capturing Americans' views.
