Star-Ledger/Eagleton-Rutgers Poll: Bush Lowest Approval in NJ since 2001

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

On Friday, President George W. Bush made New Jersey the first stop on his tour to build support for his Social Security plan. While national polls suggest that the President faces some challenges
in persuading voters to support his plan, the latest Star-Ledger/Eagleton-Rutgers Poll demonstrates that Bush faces an additional hurdle in his efforts to sway New Jerseyians: a public increasingly disappointed in Bush’s handling of his presidency.


Despite Bush’s relatively strong showing in New Jersey in November, a Star- Ledger/Eagleton-Rutgers Poll conducted between February 1 and 4 finds that more New Jersey registered voters disapprove
(50 percent) than approve (46 percent) of the job Bush is doing as president. This marks the lowest level of approval for President Bush in New Jersey since he took office in January 2001 – when his approval rating was at 43 percent.
