Hillary Clinton’s abrupt departure from a 9/11 memorial ceremony last Sunday, Sept. 11, followed by video footage of her fainting and collapsing into her van, have vindicated the Alternative Media’s soundings of alarm about her health.
No longer can the MSM, who’ve refused to investigate the mounting signs of her ill health, call us loony “conspiracy theorists”.
And now, a new Politico/Morning Consult poll of registered voters shows that the American people finally are awakened to this issue.
Here are the findings of the poll, taken on September 12 through September 13, as reported today by Eli Yokley and Kyle Dropp for Morning Consult:
- A big majority of 79% (or 8 in 10) said they have heard a lot or some about Hillary’s health concerns.
- 50% of respondents said Hillary has given false information about her health to the public; just 37% said the same for Trump.
- 41% said Hillary’s health is below average or very poor (compared to 26% who said that a late August national survey.) 28% ranked her health as average (compared with 30% last month); only 22% (2 in 10) now say Hillary’s health is above average or excellent (down from 29% in August).
- 30% (3 in 10) said Hillary is not likely to survive her first term, compared with only 20% who think so of Trump.
- And yet, as many as 50% said Hillary’s health will not affect their vote, whereas 25% said it will make them less likely to vote for her.
- 71% (7 in 10 voters) – up 10% since August – said presidential candidates should be required to release a letter from their physician saying they are physically fit to serve; 78% said they should be required to take similar action about their mental health; 66% (nearly 7 in 10 voters) said candidates should be required to release previous medical records.
- In the event that neither Hillary nor Trump would be able to complete their terms, Republican vice presidential candidate Mike Pence is viewed as more capable than Clinton’s running mate, Tim Kaine: 43% say Pence is prepared to serve as president, while 38% said the same of Kaine.
As expected, there are large partisan differences:
- 68% (7 in 10) Republicans say Hillary’s health is below average or very poor, compared with only 16% of Democrats.
- While 44% of those polled say Hillary’s health will negatively impact her ability to serve, only 23% of Democrats believe that, compared to 44% of independents and 69% of Republicans.
The national Morning Consult survey polled 1,501 registered voters from Sept. 12-13 for a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. See the toplines and crosstabs.
