The majority of Americans approve of drone strikes on terrorists, according to a new Associated Press poll.
The poll shows 6 in 10 Americans favor using drones to kill members of terrorist groups, such as al Qaeda overseas. Only 13 percent are opposed.
About 24 percent don't feel strongly either way, and nearly three-quarters of Americans say it's acceptable for the U.S. to kill an American citizen abroad if that person is part of a terrorist group.
The opinion crossed party lines. Nearly 6 in 10 Democrats favor using drones, while only 16 percent are opposed. Among Republicans, 72 percent are in favor and only 10 percent are opposed.
