Protect U.S. Elections, Most Americans Agree

A new poll finds an overwhelming percentage of


Americans don’t think President Donald Trump is doing
enough to protect U.S. elections from possible foreign
interference.

The new CNN poll finds six in 10 Americans, or 60
percent, don’t think Trump is taking the issue seriously
enough to safeguard future elections.

In addition, roughly the same number of respondents


don’t think Trump is taking the probe into possible
Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign
seriously enough.

Overall, pollsters found roughly 72 percent of respondents


said they are generally worried about the prospect of
foreign government interference in U.S. elections, with 90
percent of Democrats agreeing, 68 percent of
independents, and 53 percent of Republicans.

The poll came on the heels of special counsel Robert


Mueller announcing he has indicted 13 Russian nationals
and three Russian entities suspected of being involved in
2016 election meddling. The shenanigans are reported to
have included spreading false information on social
media, organizing political events, and communicating
with “unwitting” people tied to the Trump campaign and
others in order to coordinate political activities.

Just as he has since the allegations of such actions became


public, Trump instantly took to social media to deny that
there was any collusion on the part of the campaign team.

Meanwhile, Trump’s handling of Mueller’s ongoing

investigation continues to elicit negative reviews for the
administration, with 70 percent of CNN respondents
expressing dissatisfaction with his handling of the
situation and 55 percent admitting they now believe
Trump has attempted to interfere in the investigation, up
from 51 percent just over the last several weeks.

In all, 61 percent of respondents agreed that the Russia


probe is a serious matter that should be fully investigated.
