It was bipartisan from the political establishment, not actual people. [1] That poll is the most recent available (this month). Democrats - 42% in favor of a ban, republicans - 65% in favor. Both those numbers are also on the decline. The poll also did not break it down by age where this question is also extremely polarized. Younger people tend to be highly opposed to a ban, and older people tend to be more in supportive of a ban, with elderly being highly in support of it.
