There are several polls going around about opinions on the hearings for government aid for the big three US automakers.  Autoblog mentioned in this post yesterday that CNN conducted a poll which said 61% of Americans oppose such aid.  They conducted their own poll, which at the time of this writing, had just over 11,000 participants, around 52% of which were in favor of aid.

I decided to run a similar poll using Social Radar’s Sentiment analysis tool to gauge support for this aid around the Web and got similar results, as depicted below:

Interestingly, the results were nearly identical with 54% in favor.  This is especially close if accounting for a few percentage points margin of error from either source.  Interesting stuff!

Looks like the country is very much split on this issue, as with many as of late.
