Anderson Robbins Research (D) / Shaw & Company Research (R)

N = 1,008 registered voters (519 landline, 489 cell phone)

Interviews Conducted:
August 11-13, 2015

Questions 1, 3-5, 32-35 and 37-38 are for release after 6:00 P.M. ET Friday, August 14.
Questions 6-31 are for release after 9:00 A.M. ET Sunday, August 16.

Methodology
The Fox News Poll is conducted under the joint direction of Anderson Robbins Research (D) and
Shaw & Company Research (R). The poll was conducted by telephone with live interviewers
August 11-13, 2015 among a random national sample of 1,008 registered voters (RV). Results
based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage
points.
Landline and cell phone telephone numbers were randomly selected for inclusion in the survey
using a probability proportionate to size method, which means that phone numbers for each state
are proportional to the number of voters in each state.
Results are of registered voters, unless otherwise noted.
Results from Fox News polls before February 2011 were conducted by Opinion Dynamics Corp.

As you may know, while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state she used a personal email
account and a computer server at her home to do government work. In March, Clinton
said no emails on her private server contained classified information. However, internal
government investigators recently determined classified information was contained in
Clintons emails on that server. Do you think Clinton knowingly lied about the emails or
theres another explanation?

computer server at her home to do government work. In March, Clinton said no emails on her private server
contained classified information. However, internal government investigators recently determined classified
