Chart of the Day

Political Wire (courtesy of the Princeton Election Consortium):

Sam Wang: “Hillary Clinton has massive name recognition. She is as well-known as a sitting President… The best-known Republican, Jeb Bush, matches Hillary Clinton’s unfavorability, but lags her in favorability by 15 points. To match her net favorable-minus-unfavorable number, he would have to win over people who don’t have an opinion by a ratio of 1.7 to 1. That is a huge challenge.”
