(THE HILL)A poll published Tuesday from the University of Massachusetts Amherst found a strong partisan divide in how people view federal efforts to arrest and try people accused of participating in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The poll showed 28 percent of Republicans supported those efforts, compared to 85 percent of Democrats.
Meanwhile, 52 percent of Republicans strongly or somewhat opposed those efforts, compared to 4 percent of Democrats.
Additionally, while 62 percent of Republicans called the people at the Capitol on Jan. 6 "protesters," 68 percent of Democrats described them as "insurrectionists," "white nationalists," and "rioters," according to the poll.
