Poll:
15% of NC Republicans think Mitt Romney killed Osama bin Laden
56% of NC Republicans "weren't sure" who killed Osama Bin Laden.
Quote:
Nearly one in six North Carolina Republicans believe GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney was more responsible for Osama bin Laden’s death than the president who ordered the strike, according to a poll released on Monday.
Raleigh-based Public Policy Polling asked 1,081 likely voters a series of questions related to the presidential election over September 7-9. According to the poll’s crosstabs, 15 percent of Republican respondents said that Mitt Romney was more responsible for the al Qaeda leader’s death than President Obama, while 56 percent said they weren’t sure.
Just six percent of overall respondents credited Romney with bin Laden’s death, according to the poll. That doesn’t seem like much, until you remember that the Obama campaign won North Carolina in 2008 by just .3 percent of all votes cast in the state.
