Voters in Rust Belt states would like to see more stimulus checks and loans to help Americans after CCP virus lockdowns stymied the economy, according to The Epoch Times Rust Belt Poll. They would also largely take a vaccine against the virus if it’s free, but leaned against the idea of a federal mandate forcing Americans to get the vaccine.

A majority of registered voters in the six states—Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—supported proposals for coronavirus-related economic relief.
