YOUNGKIN APPROVAL RATING SOARS IN FINAL STRETCH OF GENERAL ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS
ICYMI: Governor Glenn Youngkin’s approval rating continues to climb in the
final stretch of Virginia’s General Assembly elections, helping to boost
Virginia Republicans in their efforts to hold the House and flip the Senate.
As the Washington Examiner reports
<[link removed]>
, “In a just-released poll from the Wason Center for Civic Leadership at
Christopher Newport University, Youngkin has a 55% approval rating, up 5 points
from his January approval.”
“Youngkin has been traveling the state to win enough Senate seats and keep
control of the House so that he can push through his agenda of reforms and tax
cuts,” the Examiner reports. “His popularity could be a boost for the GOP. In
2021, an unpopular Biden entered the state to help former Democratic Gov. Terry
McAuliffe and failed.”
The poll also found that Youngkin has a 61% approval rating among independent
voters in Virginia.

Youngkin’s popularity in Virginia is driven by the commonsense agenda he has
enacted as Governor. Youngkin delivered $5 billion in tax relief for
hardworking families in less than two years, fostered record job growth, and
surged resources for students, teachers, and law enforcement.
This latest poll comes as Virginia Democrats continue to rely on Joe Biden and
the DNC to operate as lead surrogates for their campaign, which lacks a vision
or solutions for the Commonwealth in this election.
Joe Biden came to Virginia recently to promise to “lead the charge” against
Youngkin and Virginia Republicans and directed the DNC to pour $1.5 million
into the General Assembly elections to prop up Virginia Democrats.
Virginia Democrats are relying on Joe Biden to rescue their campaigns even
though Governor Youngkin is far more popular

than Biden among Virginians.
As the latest poll highlights, “One important backdrop to the legislative
elections is the popularity of Governor Youngkin and President Biden, both of
whom are likely to be on the minds of voters regardless of whether they are on
the ballot. Governor Youngkin has relatively high approval at 55% while
President Biden has fairly low approval among Virginia likely voters at 41%.”

This latest poll on Youngkin’s high approval rating signals that the
commonsense agenda Virginia Republicans are focusing on in this election is
resonating with Virginians.

Virginia voters are split on which party they want to run Richmond after next
month’s general assembly election, but Republicans have a secret weapon in
their arsenal.
In an election in which 42% prefer Democratic candidates and 41% Republicans,
which is a good showing for the GOP since the commonwealth turned liberal blue
during the Obama era, it may come down to the popularity of Gov. Glenn Youngkin
(R-VA), and he’s just fine with that.
In a just-released poll from the Wason Center for Civic Leadership at
Christopher Newport University, Youngkin has a 55% approval rating, up 5 points
from his January approval.
The survey analysis said, “One important backdrop to the legislative elections
is the popularity of Governor Youngkin and President Biden, both of whom are
likely to be on the minds of voters regardless of whether they are on the
ballot. Governor Youngkin has relatively high approval at 55% while President
Biden has fairly low approval among Virginia likely voters at 41%.”

Youngkin has been traveling the state to win enough Senate seats and keep
control of the House so that he can push through his agenda of reforms and tax
cuts.
His popularity could be a boost for the GOP. In 2021, an unpopular Biden
entered the state to help former Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe and failed.
...
“The nation is watching as Virginia is one of only a handful of states that
holds off-year elections. A strong showing for Republicans could provide a
blueprint for the party nationally around how to discuss abortion and how to
highlight K-12 education issues successfully... If Republicans managed to take
control of both chambers, this would also grant them a trifecta whereby the
same party controls both chambers of the state legislature and the
governorship. This would ensure that Governor Youngkin could move forward with
a conservative agenda without a Democratic veto.”
