Poll of general public or boaters?
How many of the residents of the state use the lake or are boaters?
Non-boaters could well be influenced to believe that a 45/25 speed limit would make the lake a safer place. Faster than that in a boat can sound very scary to a non-boater.
A poll that targets those that use the effected lake would be much more significant than one which surveys the general public.
