Overall, 85.6 percent of respondents said companies that access or use financial data should help fund the ecosystem needed to keep that data safe.

Overall, 78.2 percent of respondents favored rules preventing companies from having unlimited access to financial information without explicit and revocable consumer consent.

The poll also found broad concern with the Biden-era approach to Section 1033 when respondents were told it allowed data middlemen to follow weaker privacy and security standards than banks.

Across the full electorate, 62.9 percent said they were very concerned or concerned, and 73.9 percent were at least somewhat concerned.

Our Chief Pollster, Robert Cahaly had a few words he wanted to say. “I know there are a lot of people very excited about what happened in Louisiana tonight. I count myself among them.

But there’s an unsung hero that made it possible. I just can’t let tonight come and go without pointing her out. When Julie Emerson was a state representative and the chairman of the Ways and Means committee two years ago, she crafted and passed the election reform bill that would finally create party primaries for Louisiana’s federal races instead of their jungle primary system that often protects liberal Republicans like Bill Cassidy.

Anyone who studies Louisiana knows that if Cassidy would’ve had the chance to run in a jungle primary, he would have likely increased his chances.

Even though Julie has left the legislature and is now serving as Governor Landry’s chief of staff, I hope you agree that she deserves a gigantic pat on the back and thank you.”
