Taken before the latest fiasco with his Chief of Staff.
The only sort of good news:
Thirty-nine percent (39%) of Illinois voters approve of the job Quinn is doing as governor. Sixty percent (60%), however, disapprove of his job performance.
Brady is viewed Very Favorably by 19% of the state’s voters and Very Unfavorably by 17%. Quinn earns Very Favorable marks from 10% and Very Unfavorable reviews from 31%.
Brady still is not well defined so if there were a consistent message to hit him it could do some good. Quinn, while he has low approval, has okay favorables meaning people don’t hate him personally at least like a certain former Governor.
The survey of 750 Likely Voters in Illinois was conducted on August 23, 2010 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/-4 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
They did that for a while in Chicago with the DGA ads, it didn’t seem to help.
Not long enough and with Quinn stepping all over the message. The larger problem is Quinn appears unable to stay on message which is the funny part of what I wrote.
If they just put a gag on Brady long enough, he’ll win.
