Shocker: Barack Obama is Now More Popular In Alaska Than Sarah Palin
The new Daily Kos/Public Policy Polling survey of Alaska, unveiled a real shocker in its approval ratings section where President Barack Obama has a higher favorability rating in the state than former Gov. Sarah Palin. Obama’s job approval is 38% in Alaska compared to Palin’s favorability rating of 35%. Yes, Obama is now more popular than Palin in Alaska.

The Daily Kos/PPP survey revealed that in the three way United States Senate race, nothing much has changed as Joe Miller and Lisa Murkowski are caught in a tossup with Miller leading Murkowski 35%-33%, and Democrat Scott McAdams trailing both of them at 26%. The perception had been that Murkowski was hurting either Miller or McAdams, but in reality she is pulling support away from both of them. Murkowski is supported by 32% of McCain voters and 35% of Obama voters. She is supported by 25% of Democrats, 31% of Republicans and 38% of Independents. Her support is more moderate (47%) and conservative (24%) than liberal (17%). Both the Miller and McAdams campaigns have been arguing that Murkowski can’t win, but the breakdown of her support shows that she not only could win a three way race, but she very well might.
