Hot Air Approval Survey: June Results

posted at 12:45 am on June 17, 2011 by

Lots here. I’ll start off with the head-to-head matchups and work backwards, since this probably produced the most interesting results. 6056 total votes.

 

Now the overall vote. Sarah Palin takes the top spot decisively. Rick Perry holds on to second. Michele Bachmann bounces into third, followed by Hermann Cain and Mitt Romney. Compare the disparity between Palin’s vote and the votes of Bachmann and Perry, though, and consider that in those head-to-head matchups… the undecideds swing to both of Palin’s challengers in huge numbers. Versus Bachmann, Palin +20 of the remaining vote, Bachmann +33. Versus Perry, Palin +18 of the remaining vote, Perry +32.

Something to watch.

 

The graph over time:

Paul Ryan receives high, high approvals. Tops overall, in fact, for those that didn’t vote for him for President. Unfortunately for him… that includes a lot of people.

The individual breakdowns:

And the overall breakdown by ideology:

Patrick…great job….wish I had a like button. :) )))

Daaaang….Mitt got 7-8%. That’s still waaay too much.

Perry/McCotter FTW!

Considering that Sarah Palin is not declared as a candidate and yet still wins these, what do you think will happen when she does declare and starts campaigning with rallies around the country and an on the ground campaign?
We won’t need these polls anymore.

Palin/Perry seems to be the ticket!
I’m on board.

Oh yes you will.
Not everyone is as ‘into’ her as some of you are.

I’ve been a staunch Palin/West supporter….but I could certainly live with Perry as VP.

Perry is on his third term as governor of the most business-friendly state in the union.
HE deserves to be top billing. I hope Perry will refuse to be anyone’s veep. He’s better than that.

ROFL. The fact that you think this poll means more than these polls is quite sad.

Hate to break it to you, but Palin gets far more support here than she does most other places.

Perry/Giulani.

Gets the tea party, the center-right and independents.

Rudy’s pro-abortion and a gun-grabber.
While I could see him as a secretary of something I’d rather he not be half of the ticket.

Maybe it is because it is so late, HUH? I am not following what you mean here.

Cherry picking again I see.
Get over it….it’s just for fun.

Thanx, Magnum…

Patrick, can you do an animation of Palin’s support graph over time?

nickj116 on June 17, 2011 at 2:49 AM

Ha, she is within less than 8, 4, even tied or ahead by a pt., and she isnt even running. She is still ahead of the rest of the pack…so, I hate to break it to you, but if she REALLY starts running…THAT’s when you will see a difference in the polls. Except amongst the people who only pick a candidate based on how her supporters act…

Petunia hardest hit.

victor82 on June 17, 2011 at 5:57 AM

I’m not the least bit surprised. Sarah Palin will win if she runs.
