A new survey from Gallup has found, “Partisans’ preferences for reducing the federal budget deficit have differed sharply in the past and continue to today. Democrats have historically been most likely to prefer equal spending cuts and tax increases, and a 41% plurality of Democrats now favor that approach...

• “Conversely, the broad majority of Republicans continue to favor spending cuts, either exclusively (38%) or mostly (42%). Independents’ preferences are currently roughly in line with the national average, as they have been in prior readings.”
• Gallup concludes, “Americans’ desire to rein in government spending, paired with their reluctance to reduce major entitlement programs or raise broad-based taxes, mirrors the same clash of views preventing lawmakers from reaching a budget agreement.
• “Republicans are focused on spending cuts, and Democrats lean toward a combination of spending cuts and tax increases. The fiscal gridlock now driving the government shutdown reflects not only partisan differences in Congress but also a divided public that offers little clear guidance for bipartisan compromise, something that Americans want.”
