51% Say United States Winning War on Terror
Half of U.S. voters still believe the United States is winning the War on Terror and that America is safer today that it was before the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 51% of Likely Voters say the United States and its allies are winning the War on Terror, while just 16% feel the terrorists are winning that war. Another 25% say neither side is ahead. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
The survey of 1,000 Likely Voters was conducted on May 30-31, 2012 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
