Poll finds Worst Unfavorable Ratings for Romney Since 1984

A new ABC/Washington Post poll shows that “50 percent of all surveyed and 52 percent of registered voters held unfavorable opinions of Romney. Thirty-four percent hold positive views on Romney, the lowest for any leading presidential contender in Post/ABC polls dating back to 1984.

“The poll also finds that Romney’s unfavorability tops Obama’s highest unfavorability rating in the poll’s history.

“Adding to Romney’s challenge in a potential general-election fight, by comparison, Obama holds a 53 percent favorability rating and a 43 percent unfavorable mark, according to the survey.”
