The guys at
Power Line provide a link to a
Rasmussen Reports poll taken
after FBI Director Comey made his recommendation. The main question was this:
The FBI has concluded that Hillary Clinton potentially exposed top secret information to hostile countries when she used a private e-mail server as secretary of State, but the agency has decided not to seek a criminal indictment of her. Do you agree or disagree with the FBI’s decision not to seek a criminal indictment of Hillary Clinton in this matter?
The findings are more negative than one would expect.
A Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey – taken last night - finds that 37% of Likely U.S. Voters agree with the FBI’s decision. But 54% disagree and believe the FBI should have sought a criminal indictment of Clinton. Ten percent (10%) are undecided.
Sixty-four percent (64%) of Democrats agree with Comey’s decision not to seek an indictment of their party’s presumptive presidential nominee. Seventy-nine percent (79%) of Republicans, 63% of voters not affiliated with either major political party and 25% of Democrats disagree with the decision.
Sizable majorities across nearly every demographic category agree that powerful people get preferential treatment when they break the law.
A quarter of
Democrats think Clinton should have been indicted. They'll be Sanders supporters. Independents are trending away from Clinton, too.
