The latest survey from Quinnipiac University shows New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) with a sky-high approval rating among registered voters in his state.
Cuomo, who many believe will launch a White House bid in 2016, enjoys an approval rating of 71 percent, according to Quinnipiac. Only 16 percent disapprove of the job the one-term governnor is doing.
From Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute:
“Gov. Cuomo might not be the most popular governor in the nation, but he’s the most popular – Democrat or Republican – in the seven states surveyed by Quinnipiac University. For example, he’s well-ahead of New Jersey Gov. Christopher Christie’s all-time best 59 – 36 percent. Cuomo tops that score among Republicans in New York State.”
The TPM Poll Average also reflects Cuomo’s popularity in the Empire State.
