Poll: McConnell’s approval in Kentucky at 18 percent
By Rebecca Savransky - 08/21/17 12:57 PM EDT


Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has an 18 percent job approval rating in Kentucky, according to a new survey.

A Public Policy Polling survey found just 18 percent of respondents approve of the job McConnell is doing, compared with 74 percent who disapprove.

If McConnell were up for reelection today, 37 percent of respondents said they would vote for the Kentucky Republican. Another 44 percent would instead choose a Democratic opponent, according to the survey.

An additional 19 percent said they were unsure.

McConnell's seat will be on the ballot next in 2020.

1. How does this guy get re-elected?

[edhopper]

5. Because the racists in Kentuky

will only vote for the Rs.

[rpannier]

11. For the same reason some old politicians get re-elected

If you need something for your community he's pretty good about getting it

[Wednesdays]

2. Which means he'll win reelection by a landslide.

[benld74]

3. Too high

[JDC]

7. My immediate thought. +1

[elleng]

4. means there's work to be done, and it SHOULD be done.

[Initech]

6. And he'll keep getting reelected because of liberal derangement syndrome.

[Hoyt]

8. White wing voters are just mad he didn't repeal ACA, approve the wall, deport millions of

Hispanics, reduce taxes for the wealthy in case they win the lottery, and worse. It's not necessarily a good sign for Democrats, just like Trump's moderately low approval rate.

[RainCaster]

9. Are the deplorables against him?

Did they get But hurt by hos unkind words about Der Fuehrer?

[Stonepounder]

10. I'll do the best I can and vote for ABH. (Anybody But Him.)

Of course I've been doing that for about 20 years now and it hasn't helped. (I couldn't vote against him when I loved in California.)

[BigmanPigman]

12. I hope Mueller catches with dirty Russian money

or being complicit. Then he can go hide in his shell/jail cell or it could make him lose 1% more and go down to 17%.

[aeromanKC]

13. 18% approval and still almost even money to win re-election.

THAT is the problem!!!!

[LudwigPastorius]

14. Endangered Species?

[BlueStater]

15. They hate him but they vote for the bastard anyway because they hate liberals more.

[Lucinda]

16. Good!
