National Poll: Nearly 7 in 10 Voters Want More Federal Support for State-funded Pre-K

Pre-K Now today released results of a national poll on voters' views of state and federal support for high-quality pre-kindergarten programs. The findings reveal broad support for making voluntary pre-k for all children a larger fiscal priority, and suggest that candidates' positions on the issue could influence many Americans' votes this fall. Notably, seven in 10 voters - and 7 in 10 "swing voters" - support a proposeal for new federal grants to help states increase the quality and availability of their pre-k programs.
