New Yorkers are really hard to please!
Gov. Kathy Hockle's favorability rating among New York state voters is lower than that of President Donald Trump, according to a newly released Siena College poll.
Just 34% of New York voters said they had a favorable view of the Democratic governor, compared with 39% who said the same of Trump.
A poll conducted last week found that Hauckle's disapproval rating hit a record high of 54 percent, with a net approval rating of minus 20 percent, while Trump's net approval rating was minus 18 percent.
“We reiterate that Kathy Hockle has a lower net favorability rating in New York than Donald Trump,” Siena Poll spokesman Steve Greenberg said in a statement.
Far more people surveyed (12%) said they didn't know or had no opinion about Haukl, compared with just 4% who said the same about Trump.
And yet, despite the public movement to scrap the congestion charge, Hoekul's numbers continue to fall and fall. Golden Time Cast A widely publicized effort to boost Democratic support at the Democratic National Convention and on the ballot this year.
Democrats on the ballot will likely breathe a sigh of relief that Horckle's lackluster approval ratings didn't infect them.
Vice President Kamala Harris and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York) both hold large leads over their Republican opponents in New York, according to Siena polling.
Fifty-five percent of New York voters surveyed said they would choose Harris, compared with 42% who said they would choose Trump in a head-to-head contest.
“New Yorkers trust Harris more than Trump on abortion, democracy and the economy, and they trust her equally on immigration,” Greenberg said.
The poll was conducted on Sept. 11, the day after Trump and Harris held what is likely to be their only debate before Election Day.
“A majority of voters, 43%, said the Trump-Harris debate had no impact on their vote in November, but by 37% to 17%, more voters said the debate made them more likely to support Harris over Trump,” Greenberg wrote.
Trump held a slight lead in the New York suburbs of Putnam, Westchester, Rockland, Nassau and Suffolk counties, where 50% of respondents said they supported Trump to Harris' 48%.
Ms. Gillibrand also appears certain to beat her lesser-known Republican opponent, Mike Sabir-Korn, with 54% of respondents saying they would vote for her to seek a third term, compared with 31% for Sabir-Korn.
Eighty-four percent of respondents said they either didn't know or had no opinion about Supplycone, a former New York Police Department detective and entrepreneur.
