Patrick's Approval Ratings Take A Nose Dive

Jon Keller
Reporting

(WBZ) BOSTON An exclusive WBZ Fast Track survey shows Governor Deval Patrick's job approval rating has taken a major hit. It's down 20 points in the past month.

One month ago, 63-percent of voters approved of the job Patrick was doing, with only 25-percent voicing disapproval.

As of this weekend, Patrick's approval rating has dropped a whopping 20 points, and his disapproval is up 22 points.

It coincides with a run of negative news stories about the official Cadillac, the office drapes, the phone call on behalf of a corporate buddy.

Disapproval of the governor has risen sharply in every demographic.

But the scariest part for Patrick is his collapse among groups who were key campaign supporters.

He's down 19 points among women, 21 points among independents, and an astonishing 23 points among voters 55 or older, all key swing voter groups that rallied strongly behind him last fall.
