Poll: Three out of four Florida voters say they would vote for homestead property tax relief

While Gov. Ron DeSantis is taking his time releasing a specific plan for a a Special Session to get rid of homestead property taxes, a new survey from Stetson University’s Center for Public Opinion Research shows remarkably strong support for the concept.

The survey of 848 likely voters conducted between March 25 and April 13 shows that if DeSantis actually introduces his plan and the Legislature votes to put it on the ballot, it will easily clear the 60% threshold to ratify it as a constitutional amendment.

“A property tax amendment … enjoys strong support at 77% (53% definitely, 24% probably), though Republicans are more enthusiastic (85%) than Democrats (68%),” the pollsters write.

The amendment is necessary because lawmakers can’t make the change without voter approval.
