POLLS/ROBERT MUELLER/RUSSIA INVESTIGATION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “There are few areas of widespread agreement in American politics, but special counsel Robert Mueller’s recently completed probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election has revealed a few of them. First, Americans really want Mueller’s report released in full to the public — beyond the four-page summary of the investigation that Attorney General William Barr sent Sunday to Congress and was released to the American public. In a CNN poll conducted by SSRS and released last week, 87% of Americans said that regardless of what the investigation found, Mueller’s team should produce a full, public report on their findings. That agreement goes across partisan lines: 95% of Democrats, 88% of independents and 80% of Republicans want a public report. A Fox News poll released on Sunday that was conducted before Mueller submitted the report and Barr released his summary has similar results: Eight in 10 voters want the report to be available to the public. The second point of agreement is that most Americans approve of the way Mueller handled the investigation. Over half of registered voters approve of Mueller’s investigation, according to the Fox News poll.”
