The approval rating of Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (R) is in the gutter, according to a poll
released Tuesday, the strongest evidence yet of the political perils
associated with the right-to-work legislation he signed into law last
week.
According to the latest automated survey from Democratic-leaning
Public Policy Polling, only 38 percent of Michigan voters approve of the
job Snyder is doing, compared with 56 percent who disapprove. In PPP's
previous survey of Michigan in November, Snyder's approval rating was 10
points above water: 47 percent of voters approved of his performance as
governor, while 37 percent disapproved.
The right-to-work bill, signed by Snyder amid mass protests, appears
to have changed the political climate in the Great Lake State. Fifty-one
percent of Michigan voters oppose the bill, which made Michigan the
country's 24th right-to-work state, while 41 percent support the
legislation. Moreover, Snyder trails every Democrat in hypothetical
matchups of the 2014 gubernatorial election.
