The demographic breakdown info is available here (pdf). The survey is of registered voters which gives the results slightly less weight with conservatives than liberals.A Fox News poll released Friday found that 78 percent of voters favor establishing term limits for Congress. That’s nearly five times as many as oppose limiting the number of terms members can serve (16 percent).
Large majorities of Republicans (84 percent), Democrats (74 percent) and independents (74 percent) favor the idea.
Generally survey results skew more to the left as the standards are lowered. A survey of "adults" will skew more leftward. Registered voters less so, and "likely voters" even less. If this issue were on the ballot, one would expect an even higher level of support in spite of all the media and all the pols being opposed.
