OK let's go over some top lines for Dem Governors:
Walz 45
Pritzker 44
Gillum 47
Brown 46
Cuomo 46
Evers 46
Edmonson 44
Abrams 45
Cordray 43
Newsom 44
LOL, these people are polling anywhere from tie to up 17, but their toplines are all the same in the mid-40s. In contrast, leading Republican governor candidates (Lee, Abbott, Ducey) easily break 50. It's like there's some conspiracy among Dem Gov candidates to poll in the mid-40s.
LMAO you actually unironically think this poll is anything above absolute trash and thus think Cuomo is at 46.
My point is, even if it's a bad poll, it's still awfully weak for a Governor is a heavily D state, in a D year, who's an incumbent who just won his primary by a landslide. It's just one example of weakness in the D Governor slate. I think I posted earlier how nine Republican governors (Ricketts, Sununu, Baker, Hogan, McMaster, Hutchinson, Ivey, Abbott, Colyer, until he lost his primary) up for reelection have approval ratings +10 or higher, whereas
no Democratic governors do.
