INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A new poll shows most Indiana voters favor a ballot measure that would put property tax caps in the state constitution.
The poll released Thursday by WISH-TV shows that 62 percent favored the constitutional amendment while 24 percent opposed it.
A state law generally limits property tax bills to 1 percent of homes' assessed value, 2 percent on farmland and rental property and 3 percent on business property. Backers of the amendment say it would make it harder to undo the caps. Opponents say it would hurt local governments' and schools' ability to raise money and deliver services.
Polling firm EPIC-MRA conducted the statewide telephone poll of 500 likely voters from Sept. 29 through Oct. 1. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
