Majorities Both Oppose & Don't Expect More Gun Control Laws

Also, 60% say the shootings should not lead to stronger gun control laws, and 71% doubt stricter laws will be enacted.

Here are results of the survey for all voters, as well as for Democrats, Republicans and independents. Totals in tables may not add up to 100% due to rounding.

Do you believe that politicians bear some responsibility for the shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and the other people in Tucson, AZ due to the language and images they use against other politicians?

Response	All Voters	Democrats	Republicans	Independents
Yes	38%	71%	8%	34%
No	56%	19%	89%	59%
Not sure	7%	10%	3%	7%
