    Poll shows that NY voters decisively oppose new  ‘congestion’ toll

    New Yorkers Overwhelmingly Reject $15 Congestion Toll in Midtown Manhattan

    A recent statewide poll conducted by Siena College has revealed that New York voters are strongly against the proposed $15 “congestion” toll to enter Midtown Manhattan. The survey found that 63% of voters across the Empire State oppose the toll, with only 25% in support of the pricing scheme.

    In New York City specifically, 64% of voters are against the congestion pricing plan, compared to just 33% who back it. Even in the suburbs surrounding the city, where residents are more likely to drive into Manhattan, 72% of voters oppose the toll.

    The opposition to the toll cuts across various demographics, with 72% of blacks, 62% of Latinos, 62% of union households, 75% of Republicans, 69% of independent voters, and even a majority of Democrats against the plan. Despite being implemented as a result of a state law passed in 2019, only 34% of Democrats support congestion pricing.

    The toll, which would charge $15 for cars traveling below 60th Street on weekdays and weekends, has sparked concerns among voters. Some respondents indicated they would travel less to Manhattan to avoid the toll, while others said they would find alternative ways to get to Midtown, including using mass transit.

    The poll also touched on other issues, including support for a ban on transgender athletes competing against girls, concerns about the direction of the nation and state under Democratic leadership, and opinions on various social and political topics.

    Overall, the survey provides insight into the sentiments of New York voters on the proposed congestion toll and other pressing issues. The results highlight the widespread opposition to the toll and the diverse viewpoints among residents across the state.
