1. What is the most basic finding of the polls that have been released in the last week?
There has been elevated support for impeachment, but the results are not strong enough to show that the population as a whole wants Trump impeached.
2. What did YouGov and the Economist find that most Americans feel about the president's actions?
Although impeachment is not favored by a majority, the majority do think that Trump has done wrongdoing in colluding with Ukraine.
3. What did that same poll find about American attitudes toward the president if he withheld funding to the Ukraine?
62% believed it was out of order to withhold aid for the reasons the President stated in the calls (the political favors).
4. What change in attitudes did the Quinnipiac poll find?
After the Mueller report, people definitely believed that Trump did something wrong, but only 29% wanted to actually impeach him. Now, that number went up 5%.
5. What is important about the time frame in which the poll was conducted?
The poll was conducted right before the calls were released, which means that without the information of Ukrainian collusion, people have been more inclined to impeach Trump since the Mueller report.
6. What recent related events are not accounted for in the results of these polls?
Nancy Pelosi announcing the impeachment inquiry; released call transcripts with Trump/Zelensky.
7. According to these polls, how many Americans are not paying attention to these developments?
32%, which in a population of 300 million, is 96 million people.
8. What do other polls say about the current state of the race to be the Democratic nominee?
They say that Biden and Warren are the top two picks, and that the Democrats are split on the healthcare issue.
