Ann Selzer asked the question, not me.  In her survey, just
7% of U.S. adults said it is okay with them.  81% said it is
not okay.

Why would it be fine with you?  Most folks find it appalling.

The question was specific about political candidates in the U.S.
asking for assistance from a foreign government to help them win
an election.
