That is EXACTLY what these polls are good for, and in this instance voting is 

an excellent idea.  It dispels, for politicians, the notion that there is 

this big public outcry against spent fuel transportation (or RAM 

transportation).  In fact, only a few activist groups object, and a poll like 

this indicates they don't have the support they pretend to have.
