• As disapproval in Iran hits new highs, a plurality (46%) of voters still say it is better to continue fighting until the regime is eliminated, rather than stopping the fighting and letting the regime survive.
  • Thirty-five percent (35%) disagree, though 19% remain undecided.
  • Seventy-one percent (71%) of Republicans say it's better to keep fighting, while 56% of Democrats disagree.
  • A solid 25% of Democrats remain undecided.
• This is partially because, by a 45% to 39% margin, voters say that prior to the attack, Iran was a threat to the national security of the United States.
  • However, that margin has narrowed by 10 points since the war began, when 48% of voters said Iran was a threat and just 32% said it was not.
  • Unsurprisingly, majorities of Republicans say Iran was a threat, while majorities of Democrats say it was not.
• Similarly, 45% of voters say targeted military strikes focusing on Iran's capabilities and leadership are effective in bringing about regime change, while 36% disagree.
  • The same partisan response is found on this question as well.
• Just 23% of voters say that, after the initial targeted strikes, diplomacy will now be successful in eliminating the regime.
  • Nearly half (47%) of voters disagree and say diplomacy will not be successful, while 29% are undecided.
