Only 33% of New Jerseyans report a favorable opinion of Phil Murphy in a new Rutgers-Eagleton poll while a plurality (38%) hold an unfavorable view.
That’s the first time the newly-reelected Democrat governor has been upside down in an Eagleton Poll since January 2018.
–
Murphy’s favorable rating had reached 50% in November’s Eagleton Poll when he defeated Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli by 3-points.
Take that with a grain of salt. For what it’s worth, the same Rutgers poll which showed Murphy at 50% a few months ago also incorrectly projected an 8-point Murphy victory.
