Confidence In PA State Government At Lowest Point in Two Years
This 2005 IssuesPA/Pew poll shows that confidence in Pennsylvania's state government is at its lowest point since the IssuesPA/Pew poll first asked the question in September 2003. Nearly half (49 percent) rate the job state government is doing dealing with important issues as ‘only fair' – while another 28 percent give state government a poor rating. Only 20 percent give the state a positive rating of ‘excellent' or ‘good.'
