New York Gov. Kathy Hochul's Approval Plummets to All-Time Low

A recent Siena College poll indicates that New York Governor Kathy Hochul's favorability and job approval ratings have fallen to their lowest levels since she took office nearly three years ago. Her favorability rating stands at 38% with 49% viewing her unfavorably, and her job approval rating is at 44% with 50% disapproving. Despite strong support for her decision to pause congestion pricing and the social media bill she championed, these policy decisions have not improved her ratings. The poll reveals a significant partisan divide: Democrats generally view her positively, while Republicans and independents do not. Additionally, President Biden and former President Trump have also experienced declines in their favorability ratings according to the same poll.
