GREEN LIGHT:
A THIRD OF VOTERS WHO OPPOSE IMPEACHMENT ARE WORRIED ABOUT BACKLASH FOR DEMOCRATS, NEW POLL SUGGESTS (Aída Chávez, October 2 2019, The Intercept)

The poll, released Wednesday morning, found that other polls undercount support for Democrats moving forward on an impeachment inquiry. It also revealed that a third of voters who oppose impeachment actually agree that Trump committed high crimes, but are concerned that it would hurt Democrats politically. And a majority of the voters who support an impeachment inquiry said Democrats should proceed "boldly and decisively," with all members voting within the next month.
