NoteThe source confirms the first statistic (83% catastrophic event) from a July 2023 AIPI poll. However, the claim states these are 'aggregate findings across multiple AIPI polls 2023-2024' and includes three specific percentages (83%, 77%, 73%). The source excerpt only displays the 83% figure and does not show the 77% (government regulation) or 73% (liability) statistics. The claim's temporal scope ('as of 2024') is broader than the single July 2023 poll shown in the excerpt. To fully verify the claim, the 'Latest Poll Results' page referenced in the source would need to be examined, but that detailed content is not provided in the excerpt. The first statistic is confirmed, but the other two cannot be verified from this source text.

NoteThe source text confirms the 83% figure from a July 2023 AIPI poll. However, the source excerpt provided does not contain the other two statistics claimed (77% on government regulation and 73% on company liability). The claim references 'aggregate findings across multiple AIPI polls 2023-2024,' suggesting these other figures may exist in other AIPI polls not shown in this excerpt. Since one of three claimed figures is confirmed but the other two are not addressed in the provided source text, this is a partial confirmation. The source does not contradict the missing figures—it simply doesn't include them.
