Forty-one percent said it would make them more likely to vote for their senator, and 36% said it would make them less likely to do so.
Following the House of Representatives' vote to impeach President Donald Trump for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, a new poll from Politico and Morning Consult shows a majority of respondents supporting the articles of impeachment, Trump's impeachment and his removal from office.
A USA TODAY/Suffolk poll conducted before the impeachment votes found Americans opposing Trump’s impeachment and removal by a slim margin: 51% of voters opposed a vote to convict in the Senate, and 45% approved. Support for the articles breaks mostly along party lines, much like the near Democrat-Republican split that occurred when the House voted to pass the articles on Wednesday.
The articles now move to the Senate, which will hold a trial in early 2020 to determine whether Trump should be removed from office. Removal from office requires a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate, a higher bar than the majority needed in the House to impeach him. McConnell said Thursday that negotiations with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer over a Senate trial were at an"impasse."
