Sample and Methodology detail



American voters support 62 - 30 percent sending U.S. ground troops to fight ISIS in Iraq and Syria, with strong support across all party, gender and age groups, according to a Quinnipiac University National poll released today.





Men back U.S. troop deployment 68 - 28 percent, while women support it 57 - 33 percent, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds.





A total of 69 percent of American voters are "very confident" or "somewhat confident" that the U.S. and its allies will defeat ISIS. Only 39 percent of voters are concerned that U.S. military action will go "too far" in getting involved in the situation, while 53 percent are more concerned the U.S. military "will not go far enough in stopping ISIS."





Voters say 64 - 23 percent Congress should grant the authorization requested by President Barack Obama to use military force against ISIS.





And voters say 72 - 19 percent that the U.S. should never pay ransom to terrorists who are holding American hostages. This opinion is shared by every listed group.





"Send in the troops and eliminate ISIS: The resounding hardline message from Americans who say, 'Don't negotiate with terrorists; destroy them,'" said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.





American voters believe 63 - 28 percent that President Obama loves America.





Voters give him a negative 41 - 52 percent job approval rating, his best score since a negative 42 - 50 percent job approval in an April 2, 2014, survey. Men disapprove 56 - 38 percent while women disapprove 48 - 43 percent.





"Most Americans believe President Obama loves America, but they are not in love with his job performance," Malloy added.





Republicans in Congress get a negative 22 - 69 percent approval rating, while Democrats in Congress get a negative 28 - 62 percent score.





By a 47 - 42 percent margin American voters trust Republicans in Congress more than President Obama to make decisions good for the country.





In an open-ended question, allowing for any answer, 21 percent of voters say the economy is the most important problem facing the nation. Obama gets a negative 44 - 50 percent approval rating for handling the economy. His approval ratings on other issues are:

Negative 35 - 55 percent for foreign policy;

Negative 39 - 54 percent for terrorism;

Negative 38 - 56 percent for immigration;

Negative 35 - 55 percent for ISIS.

Immigration





Voters oppose 55 - 40 percent Obama's executive order allowing some undocumented immigrants to remain in the U.S. The president exceeded his authority with this order, voters say 51 - 41 percent.





But voters oppose 62 - 30 percent Congress partially shutting down the Department of Homeland Security to block this executive action on immigration. Voters say 50 - 37 percent they will hold Republicans in Congress, rather than Obama, responsible for such a shutdown.





"Voters think President Obama exceeded his authority by unilaterally allowing some undocumented immigrants to remain in the U.S.," Malloy said. "But they make it clear Republicans in Congress will take the fall if Homeland Security is jeopardized to counterpunch the executive order." Vaccination





American voters say 70 - 23 percent that children who have not received standard vaccinations should not be allowed to attend school or childcare facilities.





There is virtually no gender gap and feelings are strong among party and age groups.





"American voters say 3-1, 'No shots, no school,'" Malloy said.





From February 26 - March 2, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,286 registered voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 2.7 percentage points. Live interviewers call land lines and cell phones.





The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa, Colorado and the nation as a public service and for research.

49. (Intro Q49-54: Now here are a few questions about the Islamic militant group often referred to as ISIS that controls some areas of Iraq and Syria.) President Obama has asked Congress to authorize the use of military force against ISIS for a period of three years with no geographical limitations. The authorization would allow using U.S. ground troops for limited operations but would rule out using them for long term operations. Do you support or oppose Congress passing this authorization?
