Six months after being elected, a poll gives Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin one of the lowest approval ratings in the country.
The survey by Morning Consult shows Republican Governor Matt Bevin with a 33 percent approval rating. Bevin is ranked in the bottom ten among the nation’s governors. That’s a stark contrast to former Governor Steve Beshear’s approval rating of 57 percent before he left office.
Job performance ranking vary in surrounding states. Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam enjoys 63 percent approval among respondents in his state. Indiana Governor Mike Pence has a 48 percent approval rating among Hoosiers, and 61 percent of Ohio voters approve of the job Ohio Governor John Kasich is doing.
Morning Consult is a non-partisan media and technology company. Its survey on the job approval of governors was taken between January and early May.
