2007 Presidential Primary Polls
In June 2007, the Every Child Matters Education Fund held briefings in the early primary states of New Hampshire, Iowa, South Carolina, and Nevada showing the importance voters place and children's issues and want specific platforms from the candidates. We followed this up with a national poll of likely general election voters and combining the results of the polls in all four early states.
