Majorities of voters think Congress should investigate if Russia interfered with the election and allegations of coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia.
That’s according to the latest Fox News Poll, taken amidst a new volley of allegations of ties between Trump and Russia, and wiretapping of Trump Tower.
Sixty-six percent want a Congressional investigation into Russia’s attempts to influence the election, and 63 percent want lawmakers to look into possible connections between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Okay, as long as they check the DEMS in collusion with Russia.
bs
I just don’t listen to polls any more. Even if they happen to be from Fox. Not a one of them got it right about November 8. They aren’t getting it right now.
Who cares what they want? They either voted or didn’t. Now the administration needs to go forward, not back.
Lol @ the internals of this poll.
61% have a favorable opinion of Bernie Sanders
57% have a favorable opinion of planned parenthood
The media is getting really boring with this. They’ve been relentlessly harping on this nothing-burger for at least two-thirds of a year now, and I think Americans are more and more just tuning their hysterics out.
Fox is moving leftward, but an investigation might be good, as long as it is not a witch hunt of the Trump Administration. Start with the clintons!
Ah yes the poll. When all other fake news tactics fail, roll out the poll.
Uranium
Nunes is already investigating.
I’m sure the dumbocrats will love the results just like they loved the Rachel Maddow “bombshell” about the tax returns.
I would like a congressional investigation into how much the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, Saudi Arabia, muzzie donors to the Clinton Foundation, etc., have had on our elections.
I don't know what outfit FOX uses but their polling is among the worst in the industry. They were horrible in the last election and have been horrible for years. They're always wrong. Just sayin'...
Haven’t there been non stop investigations since election day. Hahahah, they’re just mad because they lost. Maybe Trump should give away 20% of the Uranium supply, history I suggest THEN they’d leave him alone
As long as they continue to employ Shepard Smith, I know they are no-good bastards all.
Investigate HOW the Dems computers were hacked, what protections did they not use, what email attachments did they click on?
Also, how did classified reports/discussions/recordings get leaked, How did that NBC audio tape of Trump get to the Wash Post?

After she lost, the furious Hillary horse-whipped her 2016 campaign chair, John Podesta, into action. Podesta came charging out of the gate like Greased Lightning, galloping at breakneck speed, sweating it out, desperate to make Hillary look like a "victim."

John Podesta Op-Ed: Washington Post post-election op-ed / FR POSTED by by ColdOne
PODESTA: The more we learn about the Russian plot to sabotage Hillary Clinton’s campaign and elect Donald Trump, and the failure of the FBI to adequately respond, the more shocking it gets. The former acting director of the CIA has called the Russian cyberattack “the political equivalent of 9/11.” Just as after the real 9/11, we need a robust, independent investigation into what went wrong inside the government and how to better protect our country in the future.
As the former chair of the Clinton campaign and a direct target of Russian hacking, I understand just how serious this is. So I was surprised to read in the New York Times that when the FBI discovered the Russian attack in September 2015, it failed to (Excerpt) Read more of Podesta at washingtonpost.com ...
