Devil in polling details for Williams

The Telegram obtained the most recent Corporate Research Associates (CRA) polling results (December 2006) and the numbers don't look good for government.

According to the Telegram, employment was the number one issue facing the province according to respondents. Concern about employment was highest outside the metro St. John's area.
And residents are becoming less enamoured of the Williams administration’s job-creation record, CRA found.

Only 33 per cent of respondents were completely (two per cent) or mostly (31 per cent) satisfied.

The majority — 62 per cent — were completely (18 per cent) or mostly (44 per cent) dissatisfied.
CRA reported that overall satisfaction levels remained high.
