Fifty percent of those questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey released Wednesday morning say they support the president’s plans, with 45 percent opposed.
The results indicate a generational divide.
“Obama’s plan is most popular among younger Americans and least popular among senior citizens,” CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said. “A majority of Americans over the age of 50 oppose Obama’s plan; a majority of those under 50 support it.”
