A new Quinnipiac poll in Colorado finds Gov. John Hickenlooper (D) holds a comfortable lead over his Republican challengers and gets good marks for trust, leadership and understanding their needs.
Said pollster Tim Malloy: “Those are three really important issues. The governor’s pretty popular.”
Hickenlooper leads Tom Tancredo (R), 48% to 39%, tops Scott Gessler (R) 46% to 40%, beats Greg Brophy (R) 47% to 37% and is ahead of Mike Kopp (R) 47% to 38%.
The poll also shows 52% of Coloradans approve of the job Hickenlooper is doing.
