Lansing— A poll released Tuesday shows Gov. Rick Snyder's popularity has plummeted since he unveiled his controversial state budget Feb. 17.
The poll conducted by Public Policy Polling of Raleigh, N.C., shows 33 percent of those surveyed approve of Snyder's performance and 50 percent disapprove.
A poll conducted by the same firm last September, before the Nov. 2 election in which Snyder trounced Democrat Virg Bernero, Lansing mayor, showed Snyder, a Republican, with 43 percent approval compared to 28 percent disapproval.
The pollsters said if the election was repeated today, Bernero would edge out Snyder 47 percent to 45 percent. Snyder defeated Bernero in November by 18 points.
