(CNN) Americans view sexual harassment far more seriously than they did two decades ago, a new CNN Poll Conducted by SSRS shows. Nearly seven in ten Americans say sexual harassment is a very serious problem, according to the poll, a 34-point shift from a CNN/Time poll conducted in 1998. Six in ten Americans in the latest CNN poll say that elected officials facing credible allegations of harassment should resign. Two-thirds of Americans say that there should be a congressional inquiry into the allegations against the President, and half of Americans say the President should resign over them. Ninety percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say there should be a congressional investigation, and just 24% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents say the same.
