WABC-TV ^

NEW JERSEY (WABC) -- New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has been in office for just three months, and a new eyewitness news poll shows voters are not giving him any kind of a honeymoon as he presses for budget cuts.

Only 33% of New Jersey residents approve the job Christie is doing as governor.

Nearly twice the number, 63% disapprove.

The telephone poll by SurveyUSA has a margin of error of plus or minus 4%.

“Subtlety is not going to win this fight”: NJ Governor Chris Christie.

Men of Principle and ethics are often initially unpopular.

Are you really going to believe this garbage? The same people who elected him are now souring on him? He said he was going to cut spending and he is. Sheesh

Well is school budget votes are any indication of Christies support among the voters he got a 2:1 radio voting against the school board budget in our township.

If these school board budget votes are any indication of what is going to happen in Nov., we will take back the House and Senate.

Purpose of polls - to create opinion, not reflect it.

The purpose of most polls is to shape public opinion, not report it.

Like he gives a crap.

He’s out to CLEAN UP New Jersey, yea, there will be times when the CRIMINALS win the propaganda war, but overall, the PEOPLE of New Jersey more than understand what he’s doing.

Exactly! Most of these polls are nothing but political psychological operations against the American public by the Left.

I’m in NJ and I think the poll is wrong, Christie went out and told people to vote the school budgets down and 58% of the school budgets were voted down. I went to SurveyUSA and can’t find the poll in question. If I had to guess? the poll was done mostly in heavily Democratic known corrupt Counties.

Governor Christie is doing what he said he would do.
How refreshing.

If some are unhappy they can move to another state and attach themselves to the property taxes there.
Maybe another state will be their sucker.

This poll and the accompanying article is 100% deception. NO BACKING METHODOLOGY OR DEMOGRAPHICS ARE SHOWN, BUT MANY ANECDOTAL COMMENTS -- MOSTLY GIVING A GRADE OF 'F' -- ARE.

I just did a poll. 80% of the respondents say this was horrible newswriting and a pure hit piece. They all give the so-called "journalists" an 'F'.

As a former resident of NJ, all my relatives just love Chris Christie and all that he is trying to do. The only folks against him are those that are afraid they will lose their position on the public teat.

I agree. I’m in NJ, and most of the people where I work are glad that someone’s actually doing what he was elected to do.

The media LOVES THE STATE (when it’s run by liberals), and they are trying to find and create ways to discredit him and his agenda.

This poll is CRAP, and don’t mean SQUAT because he’s going to be around for 4 years.
