A new Pew Poll released today shows the American public does not support the White House’s interim deal over the Iranian nuclear program. Conducted by the Pew Research Center and USA TODAY two weeks after the November 24 agreement struck at Geneva between the P5+1 powers and Iran, the national survey finds that 43 percent disapprove of the agreement, 32 percent approve, while 25 percent do not have an opinion.
Of all men polled, 46 percent disapprove of the deal, while 35 percent approve; for women, 39 percent disapprove with 29 percent approving. All age brackets polled (18-29, 30-49, 50-64, 65+) show a plurality disapproving. Republicans disapprove by 58 to 14 percent while independents disapprove by 47 to 29 percent. Surprisingly, only half of the Democrats polled approve of Obama’s deal, as another 27 percent signaled disapproval.
