New polling conducted for the Daily Mail by J.L. Partners finds a large share of Republican registered voters support further U.S. military intervention beyond actions in Venezuela. The survey reports 67 percent of Republican respondents backing more military strikes, compared with much lower shares among Democrats and independents. The poll also records overall public opinion split roughly in half on whether the U.S. should intervene abroad. The survey was conducted January 3–4 among 999 registered voters and carries a reported margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percent.
Key findings:
- 67 percent of Republican registered voters said they support further U.S. military intervention beyond Venezuela.
- Among all respondents, 25 percent named Iran as the country the U.S. should intervene in next; 53 percent of Republican respondents specifically named Iran.
- Overall, 43 percent of Americans said they backed more military intervention, while 42 percent said the U.S. should stay out of other countries' business.
- Thirty-one percent of those polled said the U.S. strike in Venezuela made an Iran strike more likely; the poll sampled 999 registered voters and reports a margin of error of ±3.1 percent.
Summary:
The poll indicates a notable partisan divide, with a majority of Republican respondents favoring additional U.S. military involvement while larger shares of Democrats and independents preferred nonintervention. Undetermined at this time.
