60 Percent Of Americans Against Iraq War

August 9, 2006

by Yvonne Lee

Washington, D.C. (AHN) - A new poll shows 60 percent of Americans are against the U.S. war in Iraq, with a majority saying they would support a partial withdrawal of troops by the end of 2006.

The CNN poll of 1,047 Americans shows 36 percent of those surveyed are in favor of the war. This is half of the 72 percent who supported the war when it began.

Opinion Research Corp. conducted the telephone survey last week on behalf of CNN. It had a margin of error of 3 percentage points.

The poll showed 61 percent of Americans believe at least some U.S. troops should leave Iraq by year's end.

Anger over the war, and continuing violence in Iraq were given as reasons for Sen. Joseph Lieberman's defeat in the Connecticut Democratic primary Tuesday night.
