Nixon impeachment poll shows public split on trial and conviction
A Louis Harris survey of 1,447 adults from July finds 53 percent want the House to impeach Nixon so he can be tried by the Senate, while 34 percent oppose. On the Senate verdict, 47 percent favor conviction, 34 percent oppose. Majorities doubt Congress will remove him, and trust in Congress is low amid concerns over leaks, partisanship, and protracted proceedings. The public largely supports impeachment as a judicial process, but fears partisan interference.
