Strickland Now Vulnerable

3 July 2009 No Comment

A new Quinnipiac poll in Ohio shows Gov. Ted Strickland’s (D) approval rate continuing to fall.

In a re-election match up against former Sen. Ted DeWine (R-OH), Strickland barely wins, 41% to 40%. Against former Rep. John Kasich (R-OH), Strickland leads, 43% to 38%.

Said pollster Peter Brown: “Strickland’s extremely sharp drop-off in so short a time reflects growing public frustration. Voters don’t see the economy improving and have decided that after almost three years in office they should start holding Ted Strickland at least partially responsible. The question now is whether this is the start of a larger move or just a temporary reaction.”
