63% of Americans think Obama will restrict gun rights

From Rasmussen:

Nearly two-thirds of U.S. voters (63%) say Barack Obama is more likely than John McCain to restrict an individual’s right to own a gun, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.

Sixty-four percent (64%) say the issue of gun control is at least somewhat important to how they will vote, with 32% saying it is Very Important. Just 10% say the issue is not important at all.

While 39% of GOP voters say gun control is Very Important to how they will vote, only 28% of both Democrats and unaffiliated voters feel the same way. Fifteen percent (15%) of unaffiliateds say it’s not important at all, as do 10% of Democrats and five percent (5%) of Republicans.

Check out the rest, there are some fairly interesting results. While some of the people that say that gun control is an important issue to them are in favor of more, it is good to see that it is at least on people’s minds.
