Christmas is just around the corner, and a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 68% of American adults prefer stores to show signs saying “Merry Christmas” rather than "Happy Holidays."
Only one-quarter of adults (25%) favor signs that say “Happy Holidays.” Those figures are virtually unchanged from our survey conducted this time last year.
Men (71%) favor “Merry Christmas” slightly more than women (65%).
From a politically partisan perspective, Republicans (84%) overwhelmingly prefer “Merry Christmas” more than Democrats (51%). Far more Democrats (43%) wish for “Happy Holidays” signs than Republicans (13%).
Put me in the "Merry Christmas" camp, but I'm not a radical about it. If you want to say "Happy Holidays", "Seasons Greeting", or "Heil Santa" it doesn't really matter to me.
