Your Man Mitch
If anyone thought a sagging economy and high unemployment might be hurting Indiana Governor Mitch Daniel’s approval ratings they might want to think again.
According to a poll conducted last week by the Indiana Association of Realtors, Daniels has an approval rating of 69 percent. That’s up five points from September 2008.
His favorable ratings are 68-28, up 10 percent from September 2008. And the number of Hoosiers who think Indiana is on the right track 50-42 percent, up three percent over last Fall.
61 percent of Indiana voters also say the poor economy is their most important priority.
The poll surveyed 600 likely voters and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.
