Hochul’s approval rating plunges over NY’s sky-high cost of living, migrant crisis: poll
NY Post ^ | 02/21/2024 | Jesse O’Neill

New Yorkers are getting fed-up with Gov. Kathy Hochul, whose job approval plunged a net of eight points from last month — with voters citing the Empire State’s sky-high cost of living and the migrant crisis as their top concerns, a new poll shows.

Those quality-of-life issues appear to be what dragged down the Democrat, according to the Siena College poll out Tuesday that saw Hochul’s favorability rating sink to 41-46%, down from 45-42% in January, and her job approval rating drop to 48-47%, down from 52-43%.

Some 29% of registered New York voters polled by the upstate college said the cost of living was their main concern for the governor and the legislature to address, with the migrant crisis, crime, and affordable housing rounding out the other top problems on their minds.

“New Yorkers were clear on the top issues they wanted the Governor and Legislature to address in September, and those are the same issues they want Albany to address today,” Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg said in a press release.

Maybe. It depends on who is running against her for the liberal position. Hey, it’s New York. They will look for another head on the snake before they cut hers off. And they will find one. They’ve had one republican governor since 1975, Pataki. Don’t hold your breath.

Maybe she and Mayor Adams should be asked the same thing that was asked of the Chicago City Council this morning...

“Since you want they illegal aliens to be here will you donate all your salary to help pay for them ?”

Just wait until the real estate market crashes and big businesses leave NY. Who in their right mind believes the governor when she said they have no the to worry about after watching Trump get railroaded. That great sucking sound is them leaving.

The problem is: who are the delusional 40%?

That all of this shiiite isn’t enough to turn these True Believers away from their Fellow Traveler is astounding.

Liberalism is a Religion - it’s all based on un-provable dogmatism. You can’t change their minds.
They want you gone. You want them gone.
Irreconcilable differences.

National Divorce is the answer.

These sorts of people only want Democrats to fix their problems and living with the crap to them is better than voting Republican.

I read a long article by a rat living in San Francisco..to her a naked guy lying in the street eating cardboard was tolerable (what if it was her son?) and voting Republican was not an option.

Her airily commenting “dont worry” WRT the monstrous trump ruling is not going to win her more popularity.

These are sophisticated businessmen......they dont like what they saw done to trump.

Holchul airily dismissing their concerns is gonna hurt her.
