If you’re dragging because of the time change yesterday, you’re not alone.
One in six Americans want to keep doing what we’re doing. Anew poll for Daylight Saving Time found 64% of us want to stop changing the clocks twice a year, and another 21% still aren’t sure. 16%…or one in six…like the current system.
Here are a few more fresh stats on our love-hate relationship with springing forward and falling back:
1. Should we switch to permanent Daylight Saving Time, or permanent Standard Time? 43% said Daylight Saving, which is what we’re in now. 28% said Standard, and around 30% don’t have a preference.
2. A majority of us would now support switching to Daylight Saving Time. If it was the only option, 51% would say do it. If Standard Time was the only option, 43% said yes.
3. Did springing forward on Sunday catch you by surprise? 15% of Americans…or around one in seven…say they “usually or always” forget it’s coming. For people 18 to 30, it jumps to one in four.
