Title: TX-Dallas Morning News/Blum & Weprin: Obama with decent approvals
Post by: Tender Branson on January 26, 2012, 11:14:11 AM
43% Approve
47% Disapprove

Also:

Overall, Gingrich’s ranking is 34 percent favorable, 37 percent unfavorable. Romney’s is 28 percent favorable, 39 percent unfavorable.

And:

Do you approve or disapprove of the job Perry is doing as governor?

Approve: 40 percent
Disapprove: 40 percent

...

The random telephone poll of 806 adults was conducted Saturday through Tuesday for The News, the Houston Chronicle, the Austin American-Statesman, the San Antonio Express-News and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The margin of error is 3.5 percent, meaning the percentages could vary that much in either direction.

Against Gingrich, sure. For all Romney's faults, I think he keeps Texas safe R.

It's a poll of "adults." Texas has a large illegal population that is skewing the data. 38 votes in the bank for the GOP. Next.
