Kirk
k among leeast well known
k
Sen
nators in tthe countrry
Raleiigh, N.C. Almost
A
halfw
way through
h his first term
rm, Mark Kirrk is one of tthe most
anony
ymous Senators in the co
ountry. 32%
% approve off him, 32% ddisapprove, aand the
largest percentage at 37% doesn't have an
n opinion abbout him onee way or the other. Whatt's
intereesting about Kirk's numb
bers though is that whilee Republicanns are not thaat enthused
aboutt him (only a 35/27 apprroval), Demo
ocrats don't rreally have m
much of a prroblem with
him compared
c
to most Repub
blican Senato
ors (a 23/35 approval). T
That crossovver support
mean
ns he might not
n be an eassy out in 201
16- he ties L
Lisa Madigann at 41 in a hhypothetical
head to head, taking 15% of the
t Democraatic vote whiile losing onnly 11% of R
Republicans.
As we're
w
finding most places Illinois voteers strongly support raising the miniimum wage
to $10 an hour. 58% support such a movee to only 34%
% who oppoose it. The cooncept has
overw
whelming su
upport from Democrats
D
(77/19)
(
and iindependentts (57/30), annd even 34%
%
of Reepublicans faavor it.
Chriss Christie is the
t top choicce of Illinoiss Republicanns to be theirr candidate ffor Presidentt
in 2014. 18% say
y he would be
b their top choice
c
to 13%
% for Ted Crruz, 12% forr Jeb Bush,
10% for Rand Paaul, 9% for Paul
P Ryan, 7%
% for Scott W
Walker, 6% for Marco R
Rubio, and
4% each for Bobb
by Jindal an
nd Rick Santo
orum. Walkeer's 7% standing is stronnger than
we'vee found for him
h anywherre else otherr than Wiscoonsin, probabbly because oof
geogrraphic proximity, but it still
s shows he's
h just not tthat strong a national figgure yet.
Despite years of futility
f
theree's still no do
oubt Illinois is a Cubs staate. 40% of vvoters in thee
state identify them
mselves as Cubs
C
fans to 25% for thee White Sox and 15% forr the
obody else riising above 2%. And de spite the Cuubs losing 966 games this
Cardiinals with no
year, voters in thee state still th
hink by a 67
7/9 margin thhat they did a better job this year thaan
Cong
gress.
