GOP pollster Luntz: Majority of younger Republicans worried by party stance on climate change

Prominent GOP pollster Frank Luntz is warning Republican lawmakers that the public's views on climate change are shifting and that ignoring the issue could cost them important votes at the ballot box.

In a memo circulated to Republican congressional offices on Wednesday, Luntz Global Partners warned that 58 percent of Americans, as well as 58 percent of GOP voters under the age of 40, are more concerned about climate change than they were just one year ago.

The polling group also noted that 69 percent of GOP voters are concerned that the party's stance on climate change is “hurting itself with younger votes.”

Of the GOP voters under the age of 40, more than half, or 55 percent, said they are "very or extremely" concerned about their party’s position on climate change.

At today's Republicans and right wing propagandists. Hopefully, they will go to the dustbin of history.

Somehow the nonsense factory at Fox is slipping in its opposition to the evidence people can see daily right before their eyes. Clearly, Something Must Be Done, and I suspect one prominent aspect of that Something will be to give more money to Frank Luntz.
