Sen. Schumer Faces Low Favorability Ratings
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York saw his favorability rating dip in a poll released Tuesday, as many in the party call for generational changes. More on this from Correspondent Bernie Bennett.
VERBATIM:
According to a Siena College poll, Schumer is at his lowest favorability rating, dating back to February 2005, at 38% who approve to 50% who disapprove. That’s a change from 41% and 47%, respectively, in June.
The Brooklyn native is also down with New York City voters, 39%-46%.
Following Democrats’ major losses in 2024, many in the party have begun pushing for a generational shift, calling for younger voices in office, as many established members face primaries from the younger generation heading into the 2026 midterm elections.
