A new poll ranks U.S. Sen. Susan Collins as the least popular senator.
The poll, released Thursday by the Morning Consult, found a 42 percent approval rate for Collins and 52 percent disapproval rate among Maine voters surveyed.
The fourth quarter ranking represents a 10 percent drop in Collins’ net approval rating.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R – KY, ranked as the second least popular senator with 50 percent of Kentucky voters disapproving of his performance.
The rankings are based on a survey given to 494,899 registered voters nationwide between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31. Participants could answer whether they strongly approve, somewhat approve, somewhat disapprove, strongly disapprove, or don’t know/ have no opinion on their U.S. senator.
Collins is up for re-election and faces what is expected to be the most expensive campaign of her career. She has recently come under scrutiny for her vote to support Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and has faced pressure from both sides as President Trump’s impeachment trial unfolds.

Mitch really needs to take her to the woodshed.
Irrelevant fake journalism by a newspaper trying hard to feel important
Another Republican should primary her.
Curiously timed release of this “poll”.

No no. I’m sure it’s all just a big coincidence. Why, to say so would mean this Portland Maine newspaper is trying to influence an election.
I know I think she’s a RINO. The GOP Senate has several that should be shown the door.
Collins is less popular than mcsally? I find that hard to believe
She’s the best senator a Maine Democrat could hope for.
Wait, this implies that there are popular Senators? Who knew?
It’s a national poll....The only voters she needs to be concerned with are the ones to the East of New Hampshire
On a list includin Turbin Dick Durbin? Diane Fineswine? Timmy Kaine? Leaky Pat Leahey? Chuck You Schumer?
I hardly think so.
Not Cheating Lisa MURKY?? She is DiFi’s LAP POODLE!
Although national in scope, it is a poll of each state ranking thier senators.

The Portland Press Herald is the Portland MAINE paper of record.
She is almost singlehandedly responsible for Kavanaugh getting confirmed. She ought to be supported.
She almost single handley sunk the obviously outstanding Ratcliffe for DNI. Do you want to give her a medal for that, too? Pathetically, she thought Ratcliffe was too touch on Mueller. In doing so she denied a GOP POTUS under IC coupist assault a loyal DNI.
A GOP Senator voting for a qualified GOP SCOTUS nom should not be a big deal. If she was a Democrat and was a swing vote it would be expected of her by the party. I see no reason to give her a medal for that.
Murkowski is worse than Collins. Easily. Not even close.
No. Voters want a democrat in 2020. We are dumb if we lose this seat.
unfortunately she doesn’t run “nationwide.”
Alaska: The odds are good, that the goods are odd. It is a totally bipolar place with many deranged people.
