Poll: More than half of Americans believe Mueller probe was fair

More than half of Americans believe Special Counsel Robert Mueller conducted a fair investigation and were satisfied with the results — including a majority of independents, according to a poll released Friday.

A new NPR/PBS New Hour/ Marist poll said 56 percent of those polled thought Mueller conducted a fair investigation, while 51 percent of respondents overall — and 52 percent of independents — said they were satisfied with the probe and its results, NPR reported.

According to NPR, the question of whether Americans were “satisfied” with the investigation was one of the only questions polled during the Trump administration in which a majority of independents voted alongside Republicans, rather than Democrats.
