The Odoxa poll for RTL radio and online gaming group Winamax of 1,008 people was conducted on June 21-22.
Paris and U.S. rival Los Angeles are the only two cities bidding to stage the 2024 Olympics, and the French capital is running a series of events over the weekend to promote its bid.
On Saturday, French President Emmanuel Macron, in a show of support for the Paris bid, visited an outdoor tennis court set up on the Alexandre III bridge across the Seine and hit a few balls with the players. He even briefly sat in a wheelchair to play wheelchair tennis.
Macron also went to a floating boxing ring on the Seine river and exchanged a few friendly punches with a young boxer.
