Public opinion in the U.S. has shifted significantly in favor of impeachment, according to a new wave of national polling.

Polls from CNN/SSRS , Monmouth , Quinnipiac , Reuters/Ipsos , Economist/YouGov , as well as new HuffPost/YouGov polling , together paint a clear picture of growing support for impeachment in the wake of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi s (D-Calif.) announcement that she backs an official impeachment inquiry .

Theres still plenty of variation in the exact levels of support that different pollsters find for impeachment, in part because theres also a lot of variation in exactly what questions those pollsters are asking . But as the chart below demonstrates, the direction in which opinion has moved is both consistent and apparent.
