Walz handling of the virus is popular.

The survey shows the governor with a 64% approval rating among Minnesotans, down from 82% in May. Another 30% disapprove and 6% say they're not sure.

That's especially true of Republicans, who give Walz just a 40% approval rating compared to 86% of Democrats and 66% of independents.


And rightfully so, Trump is polling poorly for his incompetent response to the Virus.

According to the poll of 1,500 Minnesotans conducted from June 12 to June 15, 34% of Minnesotans approve of President Trump's handling of the coronavirus. That number is unchanged from our poll in early May. Another 60% disapprove and 5% are not sure.

This message board seems slightly out of step with the polling.

Hmm I wasn’t polled. You can check one against Walz if I was.

I sometimes question the intelligence and common sense of combined electorates. Let me mention a few names:

DeBlasio
Ocasio-Cortez
Schumer
Gilliland
Cuomo

And look at the clowns they call legislators representing California.

There are too many places in this country with people of very poor judgement.

I think that in order to vote, you should have to take a basic civics and history test each time. Your vote would then be weighted by your score on the test.

Naturalized citizens and history professors would probably being running our country right now if that were the case. This plan would hurt Trump’s base severely.

Walz (along with many other Democratic governors) has handled the coronavirus far better than Trump. The MN electorate knows this. It's why red states are seeing some of the largest single-day spikes in coronavirus cases. Trump is toast in November. I'm choosing to vote in WI since my vote there counts more.

Did we forget that he allowed the city of Minneapolis including its police station to be destroyed? Maybe they took their sample from the local protests.

How does one get to chose between two states to vote from?
