Best Answer

Polls taken during Mitt Romney's presidential candidacy show that most of the public admits they don't know much about Mormons. Among members of the public who personally know a member of the Church, most have a favorable opinion, and among those who do not personally know a member of the Church, most have an unfavorable opinion.
