Majority Of Americans Want Jeff Sessions To Resign: Poll

And 50% of voters believe Sessions lied under oath, while 40% don’t think Sessions lied about meeting with the Russian ambassador.
According to Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll, “The gavel comes down hard on Attorney General Jeff Sessions. He lied and he should quit because of it, say Americans, who are clearly very concerned about the Russian affair and all the administration personnel involved with it.”
