Poll: Just 36 percent say Mueller report clears Trump
Just 36 percent of registered voters say the report submitted by special counsel Robert Mueller clears President Trump of any wrongdoing, according to an NPR–PBS poll released Friday.
Fifty-six percent say they think questions still exist about Trump, while 9 percent say they are unsure.
The poll showed broad support for the release of the full report, the culmination of Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, but showed a mixed response to questions about what Democrats should do next.
Seventy-five percent say Mueller's complete report should be made public, compared to 18 percent who say the four-page summary released by Attorney General William Barr is enough.
"People clearly want to see more about the report," said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, which conducted the poll for NPR and PBS. "They want it released publicly, are eager to see the principals — Mueller and Barr — testify, because they want to see how the sausage was made. They want to see how we got to this point."
