Nine Months into the Job, Governor Hogan gets positive rating

October 6th, 2015 by WCBC Radio

 A new poll says 54 percent of Maryland residents view Gov. Larry Hogan favorably, up from 33 percent in February. The poll by Goucher College released Monday found 15 percent viewed the Republican governor unfavorably and 30 percent responded they didn't know. The poll found 58 percent approve of the way Hogan is handling his job, up from 40 percent in the college's February poll. The latest poll found 18 percent disapproved and 23 percent didn't know. The February poll was released less than a month after he took office. The new poll found approval across party lines. The governor has approval from 80 percent of Republicans polled and 54 percent of Democrats.

The survey conducted last week has a 3.9 percentage-point margin of error. It polled 636 residents.
