A new poll shows that nearly half of Americans want to see former FBI director James Comey prosecuted for leaking information to the media.
A survey from Rasmussen published Monday states, “Forty-six percent (46%) of all voters believe Comey should be prosecuted for leaking information to the media at the time he was director of the FBI.”
