Gene Yaw State Senator Sunday Hunting Poll Results Are In! - March 27th until April 6th, 2018
Note Pa. State Map Responses 
YES Support (1,806 responses or 64%)
NO Opposed (1,000 responses or 35%)
Undecided (25 responses or 1%)

Beginning on March 27th until April 6th, I conducted a poll across my Senatorial District, which consists of Bradford, Lycoming, Sullivan, Susquehanna and Union Counties, to measure support / opposition to Sunday hunting in Pennsylvania.

While I personally do not oppose Sunday hunting, I certainly respect the views of those who I represent in rural Pennsylvania. As you can see from the graphics below, the results are in! A total of 2,831 votes were cast from across the state (multiple votes cast by the same individual were removed from the poll). Further a total of 1,112 votes were cast from individuals who reside in the region I represent.


 Pa 23 District 
(this is a state conservation issue not region specific - review results accordingly )










Currently 10 States restrict hunting on Sunday, and Pennsylvania prohibits hunting on Sundays all together. Please answer my poll so I can hear from you on this issue.
Thank You!

  1. Approve Sunday hunting , we need the time to get young hunters involved , we can do everything else in pa. On Sunday why not hunt, also I can be with God in his great outdoors.

  2. parents work through the week and can only hunt sometimes just Sunday if they work Saturdays. the price of the license and you only get to hunt a few days of the season is why you loose sales. its just not worth it to some. we need the youth to hunt and understand nature and be one with it. We need Sunday hunting . Denise Naugle

  3. Let's get out of the unconstitutional era "blue laws". Open Sunday hunting state wide!
