“Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s popularity continues to soar... Youngkin’s approval rating has hit a record high of 58% in the latest Mason-Dixon survey... His approvals top disapprovals in every corner of Virginia, including the Washington suburbs, which are among the most liberal portions of the Commonwealth. In Northern Virginia, 48% approve of the conservative governor, while 46% don’t. The survey results could help Youngkin in his push for tax cuts when the general assembly returns to Richmond next week for its 60-day session. According to Mason-Dixon, he has the support of 58% of independents, though just 28% of Democrats. Still, he has unusually high approval of key minority groups, including blacks at 36%. Women also approve of him, 51%-41%.” |
