Christie Will Have A Tough Time In The South

Posted on the 20 July 2014 by Jobsanger


Chris Christie went back to Iowa this last week. Seems like in spite of his scandal troubles in New Jersey, he's still got a desire to run for president in 2016. But if those scandals don't kill his chances, then the South probably will. As these two new polls show, Christie is not well-liked in the South and is having trouble getting out of single digits in any Southern States poll. The Southern States are teabagger states, and they still haven't forgiven Christie for having the audacity to shake hands with President Obama after the hurricane struck the Northeast.

The Public Policy Polling survey in Louisiana questioned 308 GOP primary voters between June 26th and 29th, and has a margin of error of about 5.6 points.
