We had some fun pondering the numbers from the recent Marist Poll showing New York State Voters Want Change in Albany. Here are some highlights of the poll
…Governor David Paterson’s approval rating is at a dreadful 20% among registered voters in New York State…
…Just 16% of voters statewide believe the State Senate is doing either an excellent or good job in office, and nearly a majority — 48% — thinks the legislative body is performing poorly…
(editor’s note: we’d like to meet that 16% and ask them how much their making off our tax dollars)
…Only 13% of New York State voters approve of the job the Assembly is doing while 47% give the chamber poor marks…
