And recently, it was discovered that a Veterans Affairs Department hospital in Phoenix tried to cover up delays in service for more than 1,400 sick veterans, including some who died while waiting for care. Knowing this, please indicate whether you agree or disagree with each statement below.

  9. Six-in-ten voters agree this is a “clear failure of president Obama,” including one-third of Democrats and 61% of independents. The ineptitude at the Department of Veterans Affairs, which we have now discovered is so bad that veterans are actually dying, is a clear failure of President Obama, who campaigned in 2008 and 2012 of correcting these exact problems. By Party Total Agree Disagree Agree Disagree Agree Disagree Agree Disagree

  10. Near universal agreement that this is a failure of congressional oversight, little partisan difference. The ineptitude at the Department of Veterans Affairs, which we have now discovered is so bad that veterans are actually dying, is a clear failure of the U.S. Congress, which is supposed to oversee these programs instead of just making empty promises on the campaign trail. By Party Total Agree Disagree Agree Disagree Agree Disagree Agree Disagree

  11. Overwhelming agreement that voters are less likely to support candidates caught in hypocrisy over this issue. I would be less likely to vote for an incumbent Congressman or Senator who made campaign promises to protect veterans, but got to Washington and allowed this to happen instead of protecting America’s servicemen and women.
