DHM Research conducted a telephone survey of voters living in the City of Eugene on behalf of the Parks <br />and Open Space and Recreation Services divisions.The purpose of the survey was to assess voter <br />centers, and pools, as well as their willingness to support <br />certain types of funding. <br />Voters in the City of Eugene were by and large positive about the direction their community was headed <br />(Q1). A slight majority of 52% thought things were headed in the right direction, while 35% said they were <br />off on the wrong track, and 14% were unsure. <br />Source: DHM Research, October 2016 <br />While almost seven in ten Democrats (68%) thought things were headed in the right direction, just 36% of <br />independent votersincluding non-affiliated voters, registered Independents, and members of other <br />partiesand 20% of Republicans shared in this optimism. Political affiliation proved to be a major <br />determinant of beliefs throughout the survey, especially on the topic of funding. <br />Those living in Southeast Eugene were more positive (63%) than voters in Northwest (46%) or <br />Willakenzie (37%). It should be noted that 73% of voters in Southeast were Democrats, as compared to <br />53% of those from the rest of the city. See the Demographics section of this report on page 19 for an <br />explanation of analysis by geographic area. <br />DHM RESEARCH |CITY OF EUGENE PARKS AND RECREATION SURVEY | OCTOBER 2016 <br />5 <br /> <br />
