Americans of both parties want the war with Iran to end.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday found 71% of respondents support legislation to end the conflict, which has stretched into its eighth month and pushed up gas and grocery prices [1].
The breakdown: 93% of Democrats and 51% of Republicans favor legislation to stop the war. Large majorities in both parties want the president and the incoming Democratic Congress to work together, and they named the cost of living as the top priority [2].
Al Jazeera reported most Americans want Democrats focused on ending the war and lowering costs [3].
Campaign Trail's take: the midterms were about affordability, and this poll says the same thing. A Republican majority wanting the war over is a message the White House cannot ignore.
