Polling on the lottery

Roby Brock's Talk Business political blog releases some polling numbers on the lottery this morning. It's a mixed bag on the favorability of the lottery, which suggests to me that some, at least, are taking a wait and see approach. 71% strongly believe that a salary of $300,000+ is too high for the lottery director. Frankly, I'm surprised that it's not 15 to 20 points higher. I know people who think our $15,000 legislative salary is too high. Click here for the polling data.
