A Plurality Of Mississippi GOP Voters Think "Interracial Marriage" Should Be Illegal

According to PPP, a plurality of GOP primary voters in Mississippi think that "interracial marriage" should be illegal:

We asked voters on this poll whether they think interracial marriage should be legal or illegal- 46% of Mississippi Republicans said it should be illegal to just 40% who think it should be legal. For the most part there aren't any huge divides in how voters view the candidates or who they support for the nomination based on their attitudes about interracial marriage but there are a few exceptions.

I also found it interesting that if you do think "interracial marriage" should be illegal your opinion of Sarah Palin is about 17 points higher than if you don't:

Palin's net favorability with folks who think interracial marriage should be illegal (+55 at 74/19) is 17 points higher than it is with folks who think interracial marriage should be legal (+38 at 64/26.) Meanwhile Romney's favorability numbers see the opposite trend. He's at +23 (53/30) with voters who think interracial marriage should be legal but 19 points worse at +4 (44/40) with those who think it should be illegal. Tells you something about the kinds of folks who like each of those candidates.
