Most voters in Texas, Arizona and Florida, three states hit hardest by the new surge in coronavirus cases, said their states reopened economies too quickly.

Six in 10 voters in the three states said their states reopened the economy and lifted stay-at-home restriction too quickly, according on a CBS News/YouGov poll released Sunday.

The majority of voters who said states opened too quickly said they think it was because of pressure from the Trump administration to reopen state economies.


In Texas, 61 percent of voters said the state reopened too quickly, based on the poll. Of those respondents, 63 percent said Texas moved too quickly because of pressure from the Trump administration.

In Florida, 64 percent of voters said the government moved too quickly, with 68 percent of them saying it was because of Trump administration pressure.
