Our latest ZimmPoll asked the question, “Which candidate is better for agricultural exports?”
Both major party candidates have said they oppose the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) which most studies show would help to open up markets and increase agricultural exports. The Obama administration has been strongly in favor of TPP and urging Congress to ratify the trade agreement as soon as possible, but that will not likely be before the end of the year, leaving it in the hands of the next president and a new Congress. And in this poll it looks like Trump squeaked ahead.
Here are the poll results:
- Donald Trump – 52%
- Hillary Clinton – 32%
- Gary Johnson – 6%
- Jill Stein – 1%
- None of the above – 9%
Our new ZimmPoll is live and asks the question, Final decision time – who are you voting for?
I wish I could promise this would be the final presidential election poll since the election is less than a week away. But we will continue to discuss how our new commander in chief will impact agriculture. So, let’s hear your final decision. Who are you voting for?
