Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : Now, of course, as you just mentioned, both men- senators from Maine and a majority of the U.S. Senate, including seven Republican senators, voted to disqualify Donald Trump from the presidency in February of 2021, as did the majority of the United States House, including 10 Republican members of the House.
38% : And certainly we need this resolved, because Donald Trump may very well end up being the nominee.
31% : Both of Maine senators, an independent and a Republican, said that they disagreed with this, even though they both personally voted to convict Trump in that Senate trial that evolved the allegation that he helped to carry out an insurrection.
30% : In terms of what happened in Colorado, which was the first state to try to do this, to remove Trump from the primary ballot.
22% : But Donald Trump is saying that that's part of this migrant crisis, part of a conspiracy.
