Despite environmental, social and corporate governance investing stoking battles over putting climate change and liberal political causes over investment returns, a new poll shows most party voters prefer White House candidates to steer clear.
The majority of Republican primary voters, 52%, said government should stay out of it vs. 38% who said they want someone who will fight “woke left” ideology.Half of Republican primary voters said they agreed “businesses should be able to operate however they like as long as they do not break the law” while 41% said “businesses should be held accountable if they are too focused on being ‘woke.’”

Climate Power, an environmental group, said this week’s poll is an I-told-you-so moment for the anti-ESG movement.
