Sixty-Six Percent of Americans Want Continued Benghazi Investigation

On February 23rd, Fox News released a poll showing that “66 percent” of Americans want Congress to continue investigating Benghazi.

Published in The Washington Times, the poll shows strong American support–across the political spectrum–for such an investigation. 

The poll asked: “Should Congress continue to investigate the Obama administration’s handling of the terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that resulted in the deaths of four Americans?”

Fifty percent of Democrats answered in the affirmative, as did 68 percent of independents and 83 percent of Republicans. “78 percent of conservatives [and] 47 percent of liberals” want the investigation to continue, as well.

Breaking the numbers down even further, “68 percent of women and 63 percent of men” want a continued investigation.
