BUFFALO, N.Y. — A new poll this week from Siena College shows that 75% of voters in New York State support grocery stores selling wine.
That includes at least two-thirds of voters from every party and every region.
Dr. Don Levy, the director of Siena College Research Institute, discussed the poll's results.
"We didn't in our poll to ask voters to consider the ramifications that that might have on small local liquor stores," Dt. Levy said. "But right now, just when you ask them the question, we see overwhelming support for the convenience that would exist if indeed grocery stores were able to sell wine. "
The lowest support is with Black voters, with 59 percent supporting it.
