If you’ve been following Illinois politics since Blago was elected, you’re no doubt aware of the running battles between the Dem Governor and the Dem Attorney General Lisa Madigan, or others on both sides of the partisan divide. Blago has not caught one single break since he was elected.
Not a single demographic in Illinois, whether it’s race, party affiliation, gender, ideology, income or region, gives the governor a majority or even a plurality of support. Only 38 percent of Democrats say they approve of his job performance, but 41 percent disapprove. Thirty-two percent of liberals approve and 54 percent disapprove. Thirty-eight percent of nonwhite minorities approve and 40 percent disapprove, according to Wesleyan.
