VA-GOV: Roanoke College Poll Finds Spanberger Leads Earle-Sears by 17 Pts (43%-26%) [View all]
It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a public poll on the Virginia governor’s race, so it’s good to see a new poll by Roanoke College (not my favorite poll, but we’ll take what we can get at this point!) out this morning (and no, I’m not taking the pro-Republican, pro-polluter, anti-Democratic “Virginia FREE” “poll” seriously…and HarrisX is “a methodologically flawed poll that often promotes a right-wing political agenda,” per the Harvard Crimson):
“In a still-early look at the likely November gubernatorial matchup, Democrat Abigail Spanberger leads Republican Winsome Earle-Sears by 43%-26%”
“For the first time in eight years of polling, a majority (51%) thinks things in Virginia have gotten off on the wrong track, while two-thirds (66%) say the same about the country.”
“President Donald Trump’s job disapproval rating (65%) is the worst it has been, including during his first term, while his 31% approval rating is low, but not his worst.”
