A majority of Maryland voters do not think the war in Iraq is worth the number of U.S. military casualties and the billions of dollars being spent, according to a Sun Poll released this week.

The poll showed that 35 percent of those likely voters surveyed thought the war was worth it, while 56 percent did not - an outcome more negative than a recent national sampling.

A poll conducted last month by NBC and The Wall Street Journal showed 43 percent of those surveyed thought the war was worth it to remove Saddam Hussein from power, with 48 percent saying it was not.

"There's not an area of the state where Iraq is supported," said Keith Haller, president of Potomac Inc., which conducted the poll for The Sun.
