Fewer Americans believe hush money trial will end with Trump conviction: Survey

Fewer Americans believe former President Trump’s New York hush money trial will end in a conviction, according to a YouGov/Economist survey released Thursday. 

The dip, seen from respondents from both sides of the aisle, is in comparison to a similar poll last month. 

Around 39 percent of Democrats said in late April that Trump would be convicted. Now, the number stands at 34 percent. 

With independents, 21 percent believed in the conviction late last month; it is at 17 percent in new survey.
