LEADER OPINION POLL: Do you see signs of economic recovery? Thursday, December 04, 2003 LEADER POLL -- Leader readers are informed and opinionated and willing to register their opinions. This week, we asked Illinois Leader readers the following question: "Economic indicators are increasingly showing that the U.S. economy is growing again. Do you see signs of economic recovery in your community?" A slight majority of our readers (51.07%) said that they do see signs of economic recovery in their areas. 40.91% saw things differently. "No," they said, they see no evidence of the economy picking up. The other 4% said things are the same. The rest either had no opinion on the issue, or filled in with a comment. "Only if Blago abdicates will we see recovery in Illinois!" one reader said. "Please, 75 cents an hour jobs to replace $26.45 an hour jobs -- that's a recovery?" another wrote.
