SMOKING BAN POPULAR
Friday, April 3rd, 2009 -- 11:31 am Posted by Riley Hebert-News Director
Some people oppose smoking bans on principle, but citizens tend to like them.
A year after it went into place, a new poll shows most Marshfield residents support the ban on smoking in public places.
70% of the 400 residents polled said they supported the ban.
Officials are touting the results as evidence a statewide smoking ban should be passed.
Gov. Jim Doyle's 2-year budget recommendation to the Legislature includes a statewide smoking ban that would apply to all bars, restaurants and workplaces. It would take effect about two months after the bill was signed.
