An new expert polling analysis has found that most recent surveys asking respondents about Iran’s nuclear program found a plurality or majority support for the Interim deal reached in Geneva last November and that respondents from both parties favor a diplomatic approach to the issue.

“Partisan differences on Iran are most prominent with respect to perceptions of the threat and the ‘best’ approach, and less prominent when it comes to support for diplomacy,” said the report released this week from ReThink Media. “Most polls show that a majority or plurality of Americans approve of the interim agreement between Iran and the P5+1. The multilateral nature of the deal is crucial for public support.”

Indeed, ThinkProgress has previously reported that polling shows widespread support among Americans for the Geneva nuclear agreement with Iran.

ReThink analyzed 13 publicly available polls from 10 different polling firms, including CNN, AP/GfK, Reuters, Pew, Fox News, ABC/Washington Post and Economist/YouGov. Collectively, the polls found that most Americans aren’t paying that much attention to the Iranian nuclear issue or the details of the Geneva deal.
