IT’S GETTING HARDER AND HARDER FOR HILLARY TO DISMISS: Poll: Most want criminal probe of Clinton emails.

More than half of registered voters say a criminal investigation should be launched into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email system while serving as secretary of State, according to a new poll.

The Monmouth University survey, released Wednesday, was conducted before Tuesday evening’s revelation that Clinton had turned over to the government her personal email server and USB thumb drives containing copies of the emails, following news that at least two emails had been classified as “top secret.”

According to the poll, 52 percent of voters say that Clinton’s emails “should be subject to a criminal investigation for potential release of classified material.”

Plus: “Republicans are paying closest attention to the story, the poll found, though a majority of Democrats and independents also said they had heard a lot about the controversy.”
