According to this SUSA Governor popularity survey, Ohio Governor Bob Taft is not at all popular. Approval: 17%. Disapproval: 76%. That’s remarkable. Here in Indiana? Our Man Mitch is somewhere in the middle, 31st most popular Governor, at 47% approve, 45% disapprove. Continuing on down I-70, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is at #41 with 38% for and 55% against. The Dakotas really dig their Governors. North Dakota Gov, John Hoeven is #1 at 74%/20% while South Dakota’s Mike Rounds is tied for #2 (with Connecticut’s Jodi Rell) at 73%/18%.
Party-wise, it’s a pretty even split. 13 of the top 25 are Republicans versus 12 Democrats.
