GOP voters give Mitch McConnell low marks in new poll

National Republican voters don’t seem to be too pleased with their Senate majority leader.

A Quinnipiac survey of 1,193 voters conducted in late April found only 35 percent of Republicans approve of the way Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is handling his job. Forty-eight percent disapproved, putting his net approval just among Republicans at minus 13 points. Among Republican officials respondents were asked to rate, McConnell’s GOP approval rating was easily the lowest in his own party.
