He was a historically unpopular running mate. The polls seemed to confirm what was already evident: <strong>He wasn\u2019t a particularly voter-friendly pick, dating back to an underperforming 2022 Ohio Senate campaign in which every other Republican running for statewide office did better in their races.<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The signs since then have only gotten worse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A half-dozen polls have now tested views of Vance more than once in the last few weeks. In each of them, <strong>his already-underwhelming image ratings have deteriorated \u2014 sometimes significantly.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>And crucially, his struggles appear particularly pronounced among educated voters and women. That would suggest that his derisive past comments about childless women are indeed proving to be liabilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>But first, the big picture. Vance\u2019s net favorable rating (favorable vs. unfavorable) is now nine points underwater in the FiveThirtyEight average. That\u2019s a marked contrast to other recent running mates, who have generally polled in popular territory.<\/strong><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And notably, three of the repeated polls show about as many people view Vance very unfavorably as have any kind of positive view of him.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>His net favorable ratings have dropped:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Three points in Reuters-Ipsos polls between July 16 and July 28 (the end dates for the polls).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Five points in Economist-YouGov polls between July 23 and July 30.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eight points in AP-NORC polls between July 15 and July 29.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nine points in other YouGov polls (that weren\u2019t sponsored by a media outlet) between July 15 and July 25.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nine points in ABC News-Ipsos polls between July 20 and July 27.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And six points in a new NPR\/PBS\/Marist College poll, versus its July 22 poll.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vance\u2019s net favorable rating has declined among women by around 10 points in each of the Marist, Economist-YouGov and other YouGov polls.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>He\u2019s declined among independents by double digits<\/strong> in both the Marist and YouGov polls. (Though he ticked up slightly in the Economist-YouGov poll.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>He\u2019s declined at least 19 points among Black voters<\/strong> in the Marist, YouGov and Economist-YouGov polls. And he\u2019s also down double digits among voters under 30 in two of those three polls.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the Marist poll \u2014 the most recent and detailed high-quality survey we have \u2014 <strong>Vance\u2019s net image has declined by 28 points among college-educated voters and 14 points among women who are political independents.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Point: \u201cA half-dozen polls have now tested views of Vance more than once in the last few weeks.
