Summary
This poll, the last of two fielded May 2013, is a part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicits public opinion on a range of political and social issues. Respondents were asked how well Barack Obama was handling the presidency, the economy, foreign policy, the threat of terrorism, and immigration. Opinions were collected on how well Congressional Republicans and Democrats were performing their job and the degree of gridlock in Washington. Respondents were asked to gauge the condition of the housing and job markets as well as the economy in general. This survey also asked respondents to provide the most important issue facing the nation. It also asked about respondent opinions on the budget sequestration, immigration reform, affirmative action, gun control, the use of unmanned aircraft (drones) in the Middle East, the voting rights act of 1965, the detention of prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, and same-sex marriage. Respondents were also asked about their views on the 2012 attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, and IRS scandals. Demographic information include sex, age, race, marital status, education level, household income, religious preference, type of residential area (e.g., urban or rural), political party affiliation, political philosophy, voter-registration status, and whether respondents think of themselves as born-again Christians
