DES MOINES – A survey released this week shows that most Iowan’s still approve of Governor Terry Branstad’s handling of state business, with Democrats and Republicans at opposite ends of the spectrum.

Iowa voters approve 48 – 43 percent of the job Gov. Terry Branstad is doing, the lowest approval rating for the long-time governor since Quinnipiac University began surveys there in 2013. Republicans approve 75 – 15 percent, while Democrats disapprove 70 – 23 percent. Independent voters are divided as 47 percent approve and 44 percent disapprove.

U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley gets a healthy 68 – 21 percent approval rating and voters say 54 – 33 percent that he deserves reelection in 2016.

Newly-elected U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst gets a 52 – 32 percent approval rating.

“Iowans seem to like their political leaders, with U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley looking like a strong reelection bet and U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst off to a good start. Even four in 10 Democrats think Grassley deserves another term,” Brown said.

“Gov. Terry Branstad’s approval rating is down, after winning reelection last November with 59 percent of the vote.”
