Iowa Poll: Reynolds’ job approval hits new low

[cigaretteman]

Forty-five percent of Iowans — a new low — approve of the job Republican Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds is doing, according to the latest Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll.


The 45 percent job approval rating is Reynolds’ lowest in the Iowa Poll since she became governor in 2017. Her high-water mark was 59 percent in February of 2019.


In the poll, 50 percent of Iowans disapprove of Reynolds’ job performance; that is the highest such mark in an Iowa Poll during her tenure.


The latest Iowa Poll, conducted by Selzer and Co., surveyed 811 Iowans between Sept. 8 and Sept. 11. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.


The latest Iowa Poll also surveyed Iowans for their approval of a couple other prominent, statewide elected officials.


According to the poll, 39 percent of Iowans approve of the job being done by Republican Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird, 29 percent disapprove, and 32 percent say they are not sure.


Iowa Auditor Rob Sand, the lone statewide elected Democrat, retains the highest approval rating in the poll: 53 percent.

Not saying she is doing well by any means but I don’t understand how so many people live and die by polls like the one mentioned above.
I have a hard time believing any poll isn’t skewed one way or the other.

She'll be governor of Iowa as long as she wants to be.

Please run in 2026, Rob Sand.

I'm amazed that it's as high as 45%. You Iowans are composed of a ton of dumbphucks.

 

[hawksense]

That’s becoming a parent.

You should wander around the joint. Numpty central.

He seems like a real dork. I expect the only reason he's above 50 is because most people have no idea who is.

Is this an old WOB that I didn't know about or is it an original one?

 

[hawksense]

It was on porpoise..

As a former supporter of hers I disagree. She has burned too many bridges in the state over the past few years with school vouchers and gutting the AEAs. A lot of rural Iowans were strong against those things and she gave a big middle finger to her base by doing that. I don’t expect her to run again in 2026.

There is a reason why Republicans fought like hell to get the governors race/eiection moved from Preisodential Year cycle to “off year”cycle……If Reynolds was running this year, she’d be in deep doo-doo. Presidential years elections turm Democratsa out tp vopte as compared tp “off-year” elections.

ESA and abortion rights will be her downfall.

I could also see her leaving public office and using her husband's cancer as "an out".
