The persons who called in were asked their preferences on both resignation and impeachment. On resignation, 745 said they favored it and 823 said they opposed it.

The station reported many persons who called said Nixon shouldn't be able to shield him- self from criminal prosecution by resigning to avoid impeachment, and many said he should be deprived of his pension.

Still others said they were afraid Nixon was being forced out of office by the threat of impeachment and that could create a dangerous precedent leading to the ouster of future chief executives for political reasons.
