Washington : Americans' views of President Barack Obama's healthcare overhaul have taken a nosedive in recent weeks amid controversy over its poorly-functioning website, finds a Gallup poll released Thursday.
With 40 percent of Americans approving and 55 percent disapproving the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, the gap now marks the largest division over the law this year, Xinhua reported citing the Nov 7-10 poll.
The poll comes as the Obama administration is embroiled in controversy over the Obamacare website, which has been riddled with glitches and technical errors since its Oct 1 launch.
The site, a centerpiece of the Obamacare, through which visitors can enroll in health insurance plans, has seen myriad technical problems preventing visitors from completing enrollment.
