A new Marquette University Law School poll has Scott Walker leading in the state among Republican candidates, but that’s about the only good news it brings for the governor.
Presidential candidates are generally expected to carry their home states, but the survey shows Walker trailing Hillary Clinton in a general election by ten points, 52-42, in a hypothetical matchup. Former Florida governor Jeb Bush trails her by five points, 52-47. And Donald Trump trails her by 16, 51-35.
Perhaps more worrisome, Walker’s approval rating in Wisconsin is at an all-time low of 39 percent. 37 percent say the phrase “cares about people like you” describes Walker, while 59 percent say it doesn’t — though 60 percent say “able to get things done” characterizes him while just 38 percent say it doesn’t.
All of Walker’s numbers have taken a hit since the last Marquette University survey in April.
