The American public believes that lawmakers such as Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell should be more transparent about their health if it hinders their ability to serve in office, a poll has found.
A CNN survey, conducted as the 84-year-old McConnell remains absent from public life following his hospitalization last month and the July 11 death of 71-year-old South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, reveals widespread concern about the age of Congress and whether political figures should be more open about their health.
Nearly two-thirds (65 percent) of the 1,225 respondents believe elected officials should “publicly release all medical information” that might affect their ability to serve.
