As Donald Trump announced the ceasefire in the Iran war, opinions remain solidified: just 39% of voters favor the attacks, while a majority (52%) oppose them. Another 9% are undecided.
- Those numbers include 18% who Strongly Favor the attacks, and 34% who Strongly Oppose them.
- Disapproval reached as high as 61% a week ago, but many voters have moved back to being Not Sure since President Trump's speech, which helped promote the contrast between long-term objectives in Iran and short-term energy price issues.
- Republicans support the attacks by a margin of 66% to 27%, while Democrats oppose by a margin of 75% to 19%.
The President's handling of the overall situation in Iran faces similar views: slightly more voters approve (42%), but more also disapprove (55%).
- Again, those who Strongly Disapprove (42%) far outnumber those who Strongly Approve (19%).
- Similar party splits occur.
Meanwhile, after a brief dip in following the story closely over Easter Weekend, 32% report now following the situation in Iran Very Closely, up 7 points, and consistent with numbers shown throughout the conflict.
- For comparison, 27% of voters followed news of the Epstein files Very Closely, and 37% followed news of the Minneapolis shootings Very Closely.
