First post-war poll of Iraqis

I have come across two German articles on the first post-war poll in Iraq.
n-tv.de
spiegel.de
I haven't found an English version yet, so here the key points. A newly founded "Iraqi Center for Research and Strategic Studies" has polled 1100 Baghdad citizens between June 8 and 10.
- 51% are in favor of the US military administration until an Iraqi government has been formed. Only 17% want an immediate retreat of US troops.
- A majority is against dismantling the Iraqi army but in favor of dissolving the secret service and special police forces of the Saddam regime.
- Electricity and water supply are somewhat ok but there is dissatisfaction with security, reconstruction efforts, economy and health care.
