A new poll from Christopher Newport University finds that more Virginians disapprove of the job Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) is doing than approve of his performance.
.” He recently won quick passage of a law that lets parents opt their children out of mask mandates by March 1, but is wrestling with a Democrat-controlled state Senate to advance an agenda of tax cuts through the General Assembly.The CNU poll finds that Virginia voters seem to be to the left of Youngkin on many of his most high-profile issues, including taxes.
The poll’s findings also undercut the new law that makes masks optional in public schools, finding that 56 percent of voters believe a decision about masks in schools should be based on health data and experts while 41 percent believe it should be left up to parents.A majority of voters also support requiring coronavirus vaccines for people in jail or prison, first responders, members of the military, teachers and medical providers, the poll found.
But Republicans countered that the same poll also shows Virginia voters are sharply negative on Democratic President Joe Biden, with only 40 percent approving of his job performance and 53 percent disapproving. That’s down from 57 percent favorable and 36 percent negative a year ago.
