If you had been a voter at the time of Nixon's impeachment and resignation, how would the Watergate scandal have affected your perception of government power? Do you think the Watergate scandal has had an enduring effect on the public's perception of government power today or not? Explain <><><> Caught your question by chance. When you write in THIS area, it causes your question to go into the "already answered" bucket. I WAS a voter at the time of Watergate, and the resignation of Richard Nixon. I was upset at the blatant abuse of government power, and my trust of politicians in general was lowered. This is only my personal perception.
Nixon was already in his second term and could not be re-elected again when the scandal broke. If you mean,did the watergate burglary affect the re-election of Nixon in 1972, I would say not. The burglary was foiled before anything was taken and would not have had great effect anyway.
