One day after the U.S. House of Representatives impeached outgoing President Donald Trump for inciting last week's insurrection at the Capitol, a new NBC News poll finds that American voters are divided on his impeachment and removal from office, with most Republicans standing firmly behind the president.

While most registered voters would be more likely to support a candidate for Congress who had accepted the 2020 presidential election results in Congress, most Republican voters say they would be more likely to vote for a congressional candidate who tried to overturn the 2020 results.
