A new Quinnipiac University Poll shows that Americans oppose stricter gun control laws by a 49% to 45% margin. As we have pointed out with a new Gallup poll, the partisan divide on this issue has never been so large. With Gallup, 91% of Democrats and 24% of Republicans support stricter laws. With Quinnipiac, 91% of Democrats support stricter regulations and only 13% of Republicans. Most Independents also oppose more stringent gun control regulations by a 54% to 39% margin (for Gallup, 53% to 45% oppose stricter regulations).
