Poll: Idaho Wants Medicaid Expansion

A new Idaho poll by Utah pollster Dan Jones & Associates finds that 61 percent of Idaho registered voters support Medicaid expansion, and just 29 percent oppose it; the poll, commissioned by Idaho Politics Weekly, surveyed 520 Idaho voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 percent. The question asked was, “Do you support or oppose an expansion of federal Medicaid coverage in Idaho?” Expanding Medicaid coverage is optional for states under the Affordable Care Act, but the federal government will pick up most of the cost/ Betsy Russell , SR.

Question: You know that the Teapublicans in the Idaho Legislature will oppose Medicaid expansion, right?
