Mint Press News has a good article about why Gamaan's methodology is unsound:

Thanks, I hadn’t seen that article before. Interesting read.

My take is that GAMAAN likely overstates the opposition, but all surveys on Iran are imperfect, not just GAMAAN.

I know Pew has done surveys in Iran, but didn’t directly ask if people support the regime.

I personally believe that the opposition group is larger than the regime supporters. I think there’s enough data to infer that.

But I’ll also admit that there’s probably a sizable percentage of ambivalent/non-revolutionary Iranians who would just be satisfied with a better economy.
