Public Policy Polling: A national survey finds that 32 percent of voters are rooting for the New Orleans Saints, compared to 22 percent who prefer the Indianapolis Colts. Democrats prefer the Saints by a 36-21 margin, but Republicans are narrowly for the Colts, 26-25. Independents lean toward the Saints as well, 33-20. But 46 percent of voters don’t care who wins.

There is less division along racial lines with whites, blacks, and Hispanics all pulling for the team from New Orleans. African Americans are strongest in their support, 38-23, with whites and Hispanics putting up almost identical numbers at 31-22 and 31-23, respectively.
