Previously: PPP: Claire McCaskill, not particularly liked (February 1, 2012)
But, then, neither are the republican candidates – when people even know who they are…
Public Policy Polling [pdf] conducted a surveyed of 602 Missouri voters between May 24th and 27th. The margin of error 4.0%:
Q1 Do you approve or disapprove of Senator Claire McCaskill’s job performance?
Approve 40%
Disapprove 50%
Not sure 10%Q2 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Todd Akin?
Favorable 21%
Unfavorable 21%
Not sure 57%Q3 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of John Brunner?
Favorable 20%
Unfavorable 23%
Not sure 58%Q4 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Sarah Steelman?
Favorable 30%
Unfavorable 26%
Not sure 45%
Karl Rove’s minions spent all that money and no one knows who their candidate is.
There’s an interesting crosstab:
McCaskill Approval
Approve 40%
Disapprove 50%
Not sure 10%Democrat
Approve 74%
Disapprove 13%
Not sure 12%Republican
Approve 9%
Disapprove 83%
Not sure 9%Independent/Other
Approve 35%
Disapprove 57%
Not sure 7%
[emphasis added]
Interesting. One quarter of self described Democrats are not in the approval column.
….There’s no more clarity for the general election than there is for the primary. Claire McCaskill is basically tied with all three of her competitors, leading Brunner 46-44, dead even with Steelman at 44, and down 45-44 to Akin. Little has changed since our last poll when all three match ups came down at 43-43….
So much for being in the center.
