Nearly two-thirds of voters say former President Trump will be found guilty on some charges in his unprecedented criminal trial in New York City, according to a new national poll
Nearly two-thirds of voters say former President Trump will be found guilty on some charges in his unprecedented criminal trial. Sixty-five percent of registered voters questioned in a Suffolk University/USA Today national poll of registered voters predicted the former president would be convicted on some of the nearly three-dozen state felony charges he faces in his trial in New York City, which is the first in the nation's history for a former or current president.
The poll, released on Tuesday as Daniels took the witness stand for the first time in the blockbuster trial, indicates that half of those questioned believe Trump will be found guilty on some, but not all, counts. Fifteen percent predict the former president will be convicted on all counts, with 23% saying he'll be found not guilty on all charges.
The poll sets expectations going into the remainder of the trial and the verdict, in terms of what voters see. This could be vastly different than what the jury sees,' director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center David Paleologos told Fox News. Forty-four percent of those surveyed said they don't believe the trial has been fair to date, with 39% saying Trump was getting a fair trial. Sixteen percent were undecided.
New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan recently found Trump in contempt nine times for violating a gag order in the case that prevents the former president from speaking out and taking aim at jurors and witnesses. And on Monday Merchan ruled that Trump again violated his gag order and warned he would consider jailing the former president if the violations continued.
