According to a new Gallup poll, only slight majority of Americans say they’re engaged in the IRS and Benghazi scandals – with 54 percent saying they’re closely following the IRS scandal, and 53 percent saying the same of Benghazi – and there is a big split between how closely Republicans and Democrats are following the stories.
From the poll:
Republicans are much more likely to say they are following these news stories closely than are independents or in particular Democrats. There is a 21-percentage-point gap between Republicans and Democrats in terms of following the Benghazi story closely, and a 27-point gap on the IRS story.
