Voters in battleground states support the goals of sentencing reform, according to a poll circulated by proponents of the legislation that they hope will encourage Republican lawmakers to vote for the deal.

About two-thirds of the 6,000 voters surveyed across 10 states agreed with three key planks that sentencing reform advocates make when pitching the legislation. The data doesn’t establish that voters want the particular bills pending in the House and Senate to pass, but it suggests that even vulnerable lawmakers could have a compelling case to make in favor of the policies, if they choose to support them.
