As House Democrats continue to look for ways to impeach President Trump, a recently released poll shows that the majority of voters don’t have any interest in their shenanigans — less than 40 percent support the process.
The Politico/Morning Consult survey released Wednesday reveals that only 37 percent support the Democrats beginning impeachment proceedings, while half of voters oppose it. Only 12 percent are undecided.
As Politico reports:
Since the release of former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report in the spring, overall support for impeachment has fluctuated between 35 percent and 38 percent, while opposition has ranged from 46 percent to 53 percent.
Among Democrats, however, 7 in 10 support beginning impeachment proceedings. Only 18 percent of Democratic voters oppose impeachment. Among registered voters who said they intend to participate in a Democratic presidential primary or caucus in their states, 68 percent want Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against Trump, while 20 percent do not.
The vast majority of Republicans don’t see impeachment as an option with only 6 percent desiring to begin proceedings. Most Independents are reportedly uninterested as well — 31 percent want Congress to move forward with the impeachment process while 50 percent are against the measure.
The Politico/Morning Consult poll surveyed 1,994 registered voters and was conducted Sept. 13-15. The margin error is plus or minus 2 percentage points.
