BERN - Late polls published Thursday put the SRG licence-fee initiative and the Climate Fund well short of a majority. The cash counter-proposal looked comfortable. The Cash is freedom initiative was closer but still short in most samples. Individual taxation sat in a range where a late swing could still matter.
SRG and Tamedia surveys do not always match on the decimal. They matched on the shape: expensive new machines trailing, familiar ones safer, the tax rewrite the live one.
