**Big Joe and Mayor Pete have the highest favorable ratings**

1. Bill de Blasio might as well just stop

That's a big, big hole to try to climb out of.

[W_HAMILTON]

2. Why does everyone dislike de Blasio so much?

[George II]

4. Sanders is tied with him for the highest unfavorable %

[NurseJackie]

22. That's amazing! (But not at all surprising!)

Based on my on negative and unfavorable views of him, it's really no surprise to learn that so many others feel the same way.

It's becoming abundantly clear that BS is not going to be our party's nominee. So, considering how divisive BS has been over the past few years with his unrelenting attacks and smears and denigrating of the Democratic party... I think it's best that BS should just withdraw now.

All I'm saying is that there's too much at stake for his kind of negativity to be given "air time". It causes division and distrust and suspicion and resentment. And, I think we can all agree that negativity causes apathy... apathy suppresses the vote... and that makes it easier for the GOP/Trump/Russia to steal elections.

Therefore, for the sake of the country... it's my hope that BS withdraws.

5. I've wondered this too.

I have never heard or read anything in the past that would warrant such dislike yet I've seen people agree with the horrible polling, even chuckle a bit or joke about it like there was common understanding.

I don't get it.

17. I hear from NYC members here, and my niece

and sister in NYC that he is not a good mayor.. so what does he do?

Instead of fixing his city he runs off to join the race for potus.. "Ego" was mentioned.

[Celerity]

7. he runs NYC like shit (granted this is anecdotal, per my brother and sister)

[CTyankee]

11. My son lives in NY and works in Brooklyn. I'll ask him his views. He's pretty much spot on.

[CTyankee]

8. People across the country hate New York.

New Yorkers are considered rude, pushy, in your face, ill mannered and snobs who look down on the rest of the country as a bunch of yahoos. So they hate the mayor.

[Celerity]

12. from all I see and know, NY'ers dislike him more than even outsiders do

13. And New Yorkers are rough on their elected leaders. They are a tough group.

When I lived there they didn't seem to like any leader they had and they let their voices be heard, loud and clear. My first experience in the NYC subway absolutely shocked me. I was pushed, shoved and jostled so people could get to their train.

I learned to love NY,however. For all of its flaws, it was NYC and there was no place like it!

[Celerity]

14. I have been there a lot, and I grew up in London, so I know all about my fellow city dwellers hating

pols, lol. NYC never had to deal with that wanker Boris Johnson (and now all of the UK might!). New Yorkers deffo top London on the rudeness/argy-bargy scale, with possible exception of the Bow-bell cockneys (I was a West Ender). I love both places though!

[Cha]

16. You say that.. but I know a lot of New Yorkers

.. my niece and sister are some of them.. and members of this board.. and they all say Mayor deBlasio is not a good mayor.

[CTyankee]

19. I know I am guilty of painting all New Yorkers with the same brush...my bad...

I have family there, too, and I plan to ask them their opinion. I truly don't know the particulars.

[Cha]

15. New Yorkers in NYC tell me

that he's not such a good mayor.. and instead of fixing NYC.. he's running off join the race for potus.

I believe "Ego" was mentioned.

[Honeycombe8]

3. You mean there are people who actually know who Marianne Williamson is?

Or are the favorability results based on the five people who said they knew her?

6. poe and pete

As a 68 year old woman who voted for Hillary, I realize that we probably have to have a woman on
the ticket and I do really like Kamala Harris and Amy Klobachur, but, having said that, I would love to see a Joe and Pete ticket. A woman would be nice but I just want pumpkin head out of office, I will vote for whoever is on the ticket, I just really, really, like Mayor Pete.

[CTyankee]

10. I like him too but I think he's a bit too young and needs more seasoning.

But he has a fine mind and I want to see more of him as he makes his way. He might just make it in another 10 years or so. I hope I live long enough to see him blossom.

18. Warren 40.8% unfavorable

As an Obama supporter I am in that group that views her unfavorably.

Nice to see there are so many of us.

[Turin_C3PO]

20. I don't get why Warren has such high unfavorables?

I love her!

[JI7]

21. women who are ambitious and have a history of speaking out and criticizing things will usually

have high unfavorables compared to men.

[BannonsLiver]

23. Yes, she's had years of the Hillary treatment from the GOP and Fat Donnie
