Bachmann, Pawlenty Unpopular in Minnesota


Raleigh, N.C. Majorities of voters in Minnesota have unfavorable opinions of Michele Bachmann and Tim Pawlenty, while Amy Klobucher and Al Franken look strong against potential opponents in their upcoming U.S. Senate races. Voters hold an unfavorable opinion of Michele Bachmann by a 34-57 margin, including a 29-59 rating among Independents. 57% of Minnesota voters also say Bachmann should not run for reelection to the House of Representatives while just 37% think she should. 59% of Independents and even 20% of Republicans say Bachmanm should not run for reelection. Tim Pawlenty also sports a net negative favorability rating at 39-50. A majority of voters (39-51) say they would not support Pawlenty for statewide office in the future. Amy Klobuchar appears to be in strong shape for reelection in 2012. Klobuchar holds a 61-28 approval rating. At least 80% of voters had no opinion on any of Klobuchars announced challengers - Dan Severson, Joe Arwood or Anthony Hernandez. Klobuchar beats them all in head to head matchups by at least 20 points. Klobuchar also leads potential head-to-head matchup with Bachmann, 58-35, and Pawlenty 54-39. Voters approve of Al Franken by a 49/39 margin. Franken leads Tim Pawlenty (49-43) and Bachmann (54-39) in hypothetical 2014 Senate matchups. Tim Pawlenty and Michele Bachmanns Presidential bids didnt do much to help their image back home, said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. Both are unpopular and would have a hard time getting elected to statewide office in the future. Meanwhile Amy Klobuchar continues to be one of the most popular Senators in the country and should have little trouble winning reelection. PPP surveyed 1,236 Minnesota voters from January 21st - 22nd . The margin of error for the survey is +/-2.8%. This poll was not paid for or authorized by any campaign or political organization. PPP surveys are conducted through automated telephone interviews. PPP is a Democratic polling company, but polling expert Nate Silver of the New York Times found that its surveys in 2010 actually exhibited a slight bias toward Republican candidates.
