Morning Consult, on behalf of Modern Medicaid Alliance, conducted an online survey among a national sample of 10,030 registered voters. The interviews were conducted September 2-13, 2025. The data were weighted to approximate a target sample of registered voters based on gender by age, educational attainment, race, marital status, home ownership, race by educational attainment, 2020 presidential vote, and region. Results from the full survey have a margin of error of +/- 1%.
