The poll found that more than 90 percent of Georgia voters also list education, lower taxes, health care, ille gal immigration and protect ing the environment as key issues in the governor’s race between Republican Gov. Sonny Perdue, Democratic Lt. Gov. Mark Taylor and Libertarian Garrett Hayes. The poll showed voters seem less concerned about the Republican-backed push to require voters to show a photo ID at the polls, with only 60 percent of voters listing it as an important issue. The telephone poll of 625 voters was conducted Sept. 27-29 by Mason-Dixon Polling and Research Inc. The margin of error for the poll is plus or minus 4 per centage points.
