A new poll finds Governor Andrew Cuomo with the lowest approval ratings since he took office.
The Siena College poll is the second survey in recent days that shows the governor’s support eroding. 59 percent think Cuomo is not doing a good job in office, though he’s still viewed favorably overall by 53 percent of voters. Siena spokesman Steve Greenberg says the governor’s numbers have been slipping, but whether or not it’s a trend depends on how much gets done in the final weeks of the legislative session.
“Since the enactment of the budget at the end of March, there haven’t been any really significant actions taken in Albany,” Greenberg said.
Cuomo announced an ambitious agenda for 2015, but much of it has been sidelined so far as ongoing corruption scandals have led to the resignation of both leaders of the legislature.
