Original Note:
Nixon was very popular when he won in 1972. However, as details of the Watergate burglary and coverup became known and questions about Nixon's culpability became more prominent, his popularity plummeted. By mid-1974, the majority of Americans supported Nixon's impeachment. https://news.gallup.com/poll/116677/presidential-approval-ratings-gallup-historical-statistics-trends.aspx https://www.britannica.com/event/Watergate-Scandal/Watergate-trial-and-aftermath https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2019/09/25/how-the-watergate-crisis-eroded-public-support-for-richard-nixon/
