Support for the statewide mask mandate grew in the latest Marquette Law School poll.
Seventy-two percent believe masks should be required in public places, and that’s up from 69 percent in August. Twenty-six percent oppose the rule.
Ninety-eight percent of Democrats support the mandate, along with 66 percent of independents.
Forty-seven percent of Republicans agree with the mandate, and that’s four percent higher than the last poll.
Poll Director Charles Franklin says that’s a very partisan split, but it’s basically an even split within the GOP.
