A majority of independents and 4 in 5 Democrats, but less than half of Republicans , said they are paying at least some attention to the hearings.A majority said Trump is to blame a great deal or a good amount for the Capitol riot, including 92% of Democrats and 57% of independents, but just 18% of Republicans. The 57% overall figure is up slightly — and within the 4.1 percentage-point margin of error — from last December .

A quarter, including 40% of Republicans, described it as an unfortunate event, but one in the past, so no need to worry about it anymore. Notably, a majority of independents now say it was an insurrection and a threat to democracy, up 9 points from December.The hearings haven't seemed to budge Republicans' views, though. In December, just 10% said Jan. 6 was an insurrection and threat to democracy. Now it's 12% — statistically unchanged.

For Democrats, abortion is the top motivating issue right now, with the Jan. 6 hearing second, followed by guns and health care. Inflation is fifth on the list for Democrats.These hearings don't look like a game changer for this year's midterms, with inflation continuing to be a top concern for swing voters.
