Corbett Faces Uphill Fight for Re-Election

A Philadelphia Daily News/Franklin & Marshall College Poll in Pennsylvania finds Gov. Tom Corbett (R) in big trouble for re-election next year.

Kye findings: “Just one in five registered voters think Corbett, who faces challengers from his own political party but no primary-election opponent, deserves a second term. It comes as little surprise that just 7% of Democrats want a second term for Corbett. It’s a problem for Corbett that just 22% of independents want him re-elected. It is potentially disastrous that just 38% of Republican voters support his re-election.”
