NEW YORK – Mayor de Blasio has had a tough year with an ongoing federal probe into his administration, resignation of his press secretary and public feud with Gov. Cuomo, but now voters are saying they're not happy with him either.

In a new poll, 51 percent of voters disapprove of his job performance. While only 41 approve of his work.

Quinnipiac University conducted a telephone survey with 1,310 New Yorkers from July 21 to 28. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.7 percentage points. This new poll is in line with the one Quinnipiac conducted in May – when they found a 51 percent disapproval and 42 percent approval.

Not much has changed in how New Yorkers feel about the hizzoner in the past few months.

stop being so defensive.

Time after time, FReepers post stuff like "All NYC voters are stupid liberals", blah, blah. I am proudly different from those NYers, at great consequence to myself (being harassed for being conservative at work). So pardon me for being "so defensive", and use a scalpel, not a Howitzer.

Well, “we” as a whole did vote him in - twice. Hopefully enough of us have learned our lesson and will turn out for Trump in November.

And they’ll re-elect him anyway.

I stand by my statement that most New Yorkers are idiots for electing Cuomos, DeBlasios, etc, just as most Californians are idiots for the politicians we elect.

It’s not a broad brush, it’s the truth.
