Balloon Boy!

Our newest national survey finds that Balloon Boy is not very popular. 24% of voters have an unfavorable opinion of him. Only 5% like him.

He is particularly unpopular out west where his net favorability is -25. Maybe people there think he embarrassed their region.

This is one thing we can get pretty strong consensus across party lines about- 26% of Republicans, 24% of Democrats, and 24% of independents have an unfavorable opinion of him. Disliking Balloon Boy is something we can put our differences aside about.

Sorry buddy, I think your 15 minutes are running out.

  1. This is horrible! You asked participants if they had a favorable or unfavorable opinion of a SIX YEAR OLD? Ask about his dad, sure, who was the mastermind of the plot and is probably close to being the most hated man in America right now. But the kid should be left out of this. That's probably why you got such a staggering number of "unsure" answers. Your respondents are baffled by the question.

  2. This is very misleading, PPP. 70% of voters have no opinion. There is a silent majority of Americans who don't know or don't care. When will we finally listen to them? The balloon boy's reputation must be protected from PPP's slander.
