But a majority also said they believe Clinton used her personal email account while secretary of state as a matter of convenience, not because she had something to hide.

> According to the results of a Monmouth University survey released Wednesday morning, 52 percent of registered voters think that Clinton’s emails should be investigated in a criminal probe, while 41 percent think it should not be. Just over half (51 percent) said that Clinton used her personal email account as a matter of personal convenience, while 38 percent said her actions suggest that the former secretary of state was trying to conceal information.

> Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said on Tuesday that Clinton had directed aides to hand over to the FBI her personal email server and a thumb drive containing the emails already provided to the State Department.
