https://bluevirginia.us/2022/01/new-poll-finds-youngkin-at-just-44-42-2-pts-approval-in-contrast-northam-was-18-pts-in-april-2018-35-pts-in-december-2018#comment-5711972576Youngkins at just 44%-42% approval, with his support overwhelmingly positive (90%-2%) among Trump voters and overwhelmingly negative (6%-74%) among Biden voters.
Youngkins approval ratings arent much different among parents of school-age children (43%-45%) and those who are not parents of school-age children (44%-40%).
For comparison, Ralph Northams approval rating was at 44%-26% as of April 2018, and at 59%-24% as of December 2018.

OP
First number is approve, second number is disapprove. So 44-42 would mean that 44% approve

Guess Youngkin is going right to the 'Separated but living together' stage.

Look at the damage the Former Guy did. Virginia really missed the boat on this one.

Youngkin will lean into all that is Christo-Fascist White Nationalist tRumpism, and alienate the independents. His 56-58% DISapproval rating will grow with time.
They are loud and obnoxious and get the most news coverage, but they are not a majority.
If we turn out voters, we win.

And now they decide that they dont like him? Their @sses should have voted when it mattered. Now we have to suffer 4 years with this @sshole.
