(CNN) Ever since Tara Reade's allegation that former Vice President Joe Biden sexually assaulted her in 1993 emerged, we've been waiting for hard data that provides some early signs of how the accusations -- and Biden's unequivocal denial -- are playing with the public. Now we have some -- and the news should be mildly encouraging for Biden backers. Opinion about whether the accusation is true is very, very divided. Roughly 4 in 10 (37%) -- say the allegation is "probably true" while 32% say it's probably not true, and 31% have no opinion. Except that when you dig into the numbers one level further, you find this: Among the group that says the accusation against Biden is probably true, he still wins 1 in 3 of their votes.
