Poll numbers are sometimes hard to come by in Washington State, for months citizens, observers and voters have been wanting to know exactly where Governor Jay Inslee stands, and now we know.
It's not Rasmussen or Gallup, but KING-5 TV is a respected, neutral barometer for certain political climates in our state. A new poll released this week shows Inslee's approval rating is only 41%, and 48% of voters who identify as independent "disapprove" of him and his performance.
The KING-5USA Poll was conducted January 26-28, 2020, so the full effect of his COVID-19 policies were not quite felt yet.
Experts believe the low ratings stem from his stance on fighting voters over I-976, the $30 car tab issue. Now, many believe his poll numbers would drop at least a few more points due to his heavy handed approach to COVID-19 and the Stay at Home lockdown.

The WA democrats have so emasculated the state GOP over the last 30+ years that anyone running here gets a “who is that?”. In my opinion, this states’ GOP is not relevant (a bunch of old king county re-run hacks)
These overbearing liberal governors can quickly fix this by simply admitting they were wrong. #Muhaha
Dimslee doesn’t care about approval - as long as he gets compliance.
Culp for Governor!!!
WA state republican party is irrelevant, full of RINOs (much like CA).
the Republicans in the state legislature are just stealing paychecks.
Inslee is a turd of the highest order, and he deserves the maledictions of all honest men.
You get the government you voted for.
Vitamin B12.
Only 3.5 months late. Wow, those media really work overtime to get news out to the public.
I’m curious to see how all of this plays out. Hopefully, Inslee and his AG (Bob Ferguson) are voted out of office.
So get of you (bleep) and run.
My favorite line from Thelma and Louise (about marriage): “you get what you settle for.” Same with government.
He got a big break from the researchers at the UW Virology flu investigation.
He opposed them and wasted it.
What a dunce.
He was overly heavy handed after doing zilch to start with and then mismanaging everything.
Yet he is praised as a hero by the media and the Left as an example of what to do.
Yes indeed.
The Democrats citizens of these blue states are sick and tired of this lockdown bull crap already in these very positive approvals are going to disappear very quickly
VERY QUICKLY
Our little governor in New Jersey they’re Phil Murphy woke up real quick and realizes hey I need all that jersey shore revenue for the state is going to be underwater.
I saw Joshua Freed last night on our district Zoom session. He has a quick mind with high intelligence. He is also a devout Christian. He is worried that the Dems will initiate a state income tax to overcome the low tax revenue from the economic down turn. The Dems never let a crisis go to waste.
A January poll?? Sorry. That’s like quoting a poll on Biden before the Reade allegations.
