>>>No, it makes 42% for and 24% against. Those who are undecided are not against it.

>>That still means that 53% did not support it. In many cases decisions it takes more than half or even two thirds of supporting votes because a law to be accepted.

>I disagree. The 29% cannot be considered as not supporting. Those who are neutral are ok either way so they cannot be considered as against it. Most often they will fall into the support category when it comes down to implementing a change or not. They only care how many are against it compared to those who support it or are neutral.
