The vast majority of Americans would support a national stay-at-home order being issued amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new poll.
The latest survey by Quinnipiac University found 81 percent of U.S. adults backed a national stay-at-home order, with 17 percent opposing the idea.
Democratic voters and Independents were more likely to support the issuing of such an order, with 95 percent of Democrats and eight-in-ten Independents approving the idea.
Republicans told pollsters that they backed the idea of a national stay-at-home order, with 68 percent supporting the idea and 31 percent saying they would oppose it.
While registering their support for a nationwide lockdown, 70 percent of polled U.S. adults also told Quinnipiac that they believed the pandemic was only getting worse.
