Zogby 3/08/99 Zogby International Press Release March 8, 1999 2 to 1 AMERICANS BELIEVE CLINTON GUILTY OF ALLEGED RAPE Americans believe Juanita Broaddrick's allegations that she was raped by President Bill Clinton in 1979 by a more than 2-1 margin, although just as many say additional information about the incident is needed before a true judgement can be made, a Zogby America poll shows. Results of a Zogby America poll conducted March 4-7 of 908 likely voters show that 36.8% of the respondents say they are inclined to believe Broaddrick based on information known today, while 17.3% say they are inclined to believe the President's denial. Among Republican respondents, 58% say they believe Broaddrick with 6% believing the President. Among Democratic respondents, 31.1% say they believe the President with 18.1% siding with Broaddrick. And among Independents, 34.5% say they believe Broaddrick with 13.3% siding with the President. The poll has a plus/minus 3.3% margin of sampling error. Responses among men and women were similar regarding the allegations, with 39.8% of the men respondents believing Broaddrick compared to 34% of the woman respondents, while 15.9% of the men and 18.6% of the women respondents say they believe the President. While many respondents have already made determinations regarding the allegations, even more or 39.7% say more information is needed before a true judgement can be made. Despite many who have made up their minds, the poll also showed an overwhelming majority, or 61.8% believe the President should not make any further statements and/or respond to media inquires about the alleged incident, apart from his already released one-sentence denial which was issued through his attorney. The survey showed that 27.7% of the respondents agreed that additional response from the President is needed, while 10.5% said they were not sure. Of the respondents, 77.5% said they were either very aware or somewhat aware of the allegations.
