Marist poll finds clear majorities oppose big game hunting. Maybe a new bipartisan issue?
Marist on Big Game hunting
Key Findings:
Whether you’re feeling the post-Thanksgiving exercise & diet burn, or the Sanders bern, there are numbers to help you find your tribe. Seems like dieting is down. Sanders, maybe up?

And, maybe we found another issue that might have cross-demo appeal: banning big game hunting. Candidates take note.
