Governor Andrew Cuomo has a 51-43 percent favorability rating among registered voters, up from a negative 45-49 percent favorability rating in November among likely 2018 voters. The Assembly has a 48-32 percent favorability rating – its best ever – up from negative 40-43 percent in June with likely voters, while the State Senate has a 49-38 percent favorability rating, just shy of its best ever, up from negative 41-45 percent in June with likely voters, according to a new Siena College poll of New York State registered voters.
New Yorkers disapprove of the recent decision by the pay raise commission to increase the salary of legislators and restrict their outside income and limit stipends by a 57-35 percent margin. By an overwhelming 80-15 percent margin, voters say the Legislature should not approve the pay commission’s recommendation to increase salaries for state leaders. Infrastructure replaces taxes as the top issue voters want the governor to focus on this year. And there is strong to overwhelming support for many initiatives on Cuomo’s 2019 agenda.
“As he begins his third term, Andrew Cuomo moves back into positive territory, with a small majority of voters, 51 percent, viewing him favorably, although it’s a far cry from the 70 percent favorability rating he had beginning his first term and even the 60 percent favorability rating he had beginning his second term,” said Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg. “More than two-thirds of Democrats view Cuomo favorably, while independents are divided and three-quarters of Republicans view him unfavorably.
