The majority of voters in a new poll view the Democratic-led Green New Deal as a socialist proposal.

Key results in the new survey from The Hill and HarrisX:

  • 67 percent of voters think the Green New Deal is "largely socialist."

  • 33 percent said it is "largely capitalist."

  • 73 percent of Republicans, 67 percent of Democrats, and 65 percent of independents think it is a socialist plan.

The Green New Deal, introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., aims to curb the use of fossil fuels over the next 10 years. Republicans and other critics of the deal said its goals are too aggressive and unrealistic.
