Half surveyed oppose combined reporting proposal
Half of the likely voters surveyed in a new WisPolitics/Checkpoint poll opposed increasing business taxes on companies with out-of-state operations to help close the $500 million projected state budget deficit.
Senate Dems included the proposal in their plan to fix the shortfall. Combined reporting requires businesses to take into account their out-of-state holdings in calculating their Wisconsin taxes.
Thirty-six percent of those surveyed said they supported the proposal, while 50 percent were opposed. Thirteen percent weren't sure.
The telephone survey of 400 randomly selected likely voters was conducted March 27-April 2. It had a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.
