Poll: NJ gov's job approval rating up
TRENTON (AP) — A new poll finds more New Jerseyans think Gov. Jon Corzine is doing OK as chief executive.
Forty-three percent of those responding to a Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey poll out Friday say they approve of Corzine's job performance. Forty percent disapprove. That's the best showing for the Democratic governor in more than a year.
The poll indicates Republican former U.S. Attorney Chris Christie has the best early shot against Corzine in this year's election for governor, although Christie has yet to lay out his positions on most issues.
Christie is recognized by more Republican voters than any of the other GOP challengers. They are former Bogota Mayor Steve Lonegan, Assemblyman Rick Merkt and Franklin Township Mayor Brian Levine.
The telephone poll of 413 registered voters was conducted Jan. 12-14 and has a sampling error margin of plus or minus 4.8 percent.
