Belief in the Foxconn project is at its lowest level yet in MU Law School poll

From A Better Mt. Pleasant:

"In the latest version of the poll, 35% of respondents said the plant would eventually provide enough value, down from 41% the last time the question was asked and the lowest level to date."

The percentage of voters who expect Foxconn Technology Group’s Mount Pleasant plant to live up to the incentives being offered by Wisconsin reached its lowest level in the Marquette Law School since the project was announced.
The poll has asked voters about the project 10 times since 2017. The question notes that the company plans to employ 13,000 people and the state is offering up to $3 billion in incentives before asking voters if they think the plant will “ultimately provide this much or more benefit or is the state paying more than the plant is worth.”
In the latest version of the poll, 35% of respondents said the plant would eventually provide enough value, down from 41% the last time the question was asked and the lowest level to date.
