New Marist Poll - Christie

Last edited Wed Jan 15, 2014, 09:39 PM - Edit history (1)

Generally positive except for this notable news:

But the survey also shows that the potential 2016 Republican candidate has lost ground to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in an early hypothetical presidential match up and now trails her by 13 points.

The poll says that "..far more Americans view him as a strong leader rather than as a bully." Still, the drop in his support in a potential presidential run is a sign of trouble.

That is why his numbers have dropped. There were some moderate Democrats who would consider him. They no longer do.
