A Day Too Soon: Nixon 51% Approval Rating One of the Strongest In America

KY3 Political Notebook reported on Friday that Governor Nixon's approval numbers from a Nov. 23rd poll are in the low 40's and thus should "alarm Nixon aides and supporters".

The only problem is a poll by the very same company Survey USA the following day shows Nixon approval ratings at 51%, which places him as one of the two highest rated Governors in America!

What they also failed to mention is that even at the 44% approval rating Governor Nixon was still one of the most popular Governors in America.

It's a hard time to be a Governor, whether you are Republican or Democrat, because the economy is in the tank.

The fact that Governor Nixon is at 51% , far stronger than almost every Governor in the United States, should send a message to aides and supporters that he continues to lead our state out of the dark days of Republican Governor Matt Blunt.
