Feinstein's approval ratings hit an all-time low; Harris underwater, poll says
The Associated Press ^ | February 16, 2022 | By Melanie Mason

Views of Sen. Dianne Feinstein's job performance have tumbled to the lowest point in her three-decade Senate career, with just 30% of California voters giving her positive marks in a new UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll co-sponsored by the Los Angeles Times.

Respondents gave similarly unenthusiastic marks to Vice President Kamala Harris, whose popularity is underwater, with 38% approval and 46% disapproval, while they are evenly divided in their rating of President Biden. The assessments of both Biden and Harris dropped sharply from last summer, in line with their slumping poll numbers nationwide.

Amid the broadly pessimistic mood of Californian voters, two-thirds of whom believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, the lagging approval for Democrats Feinstein and Harris stands out, said Mark DiCamillo, director of the IGS poll.

"I was amazed at the disaffection for both of the women," DiCamillo said.

For Biden and Harris, the tepid reception from voters in reliably blue California underscores their larger woes in terms of public opinion.

Respondents are evenly split in their regard for Biden, with 47% approving and 48% disapproving. That marks a two-digit negative shift since the last IGS poll, in July, when his standing was at 59% approval and 37% disapproval.

While Biden, 79, still has the approval of 72% of California Democrats, that support dropped by 14 points in the last six months. Among voters with no party preference, his approval ratings plunged 15 points in that time, with 50% now disapproving of his performance.

30% actual people in a true poll would translate to a 68% to 32% victory in the upcoming fraudulent election. In that state.

They said how many decades of “service” but didn’t happen to mention she is-————

88 years old.


A new Senate term would have her in office finishing up legislative duties at age 94. Then on to re-election.

Not many can call Pelosi a youngster.

The machine can’t be defeated in California. Only a Federal intervention has a chance of lifting the RATs jackboots from that former Republic.

From what I understand, her mental state would make Joe Biden look like a Mensa Candidate, IOWs she should be in assisted living under constant watch, so she doesn’t wander off somewhere.

CA is turning a tiny bit purple thanks to Latino men and a few (but only a few) Dem moms who are finally getting a little tired of school crap (remote learning, masking, etc).

” Biden, with 47% approving”

Yeah, 47% of mostly blind, deaf and stoopid people.

It’s California. The NPCs in LA and Fairyland will always vote for the whatever has a “D” after its name. And the feckless Repubs in CA will run 536 no-name vanity candidates and split the jungle primary vote so there are two equally ugly Democraps in the general.

Yeah, I was about to suggest that her numbers were undoubtedly helped by people not realizing she was still wasting oxygen.

She’s not running this election cycle.

Somebody worse will take her place.
