Poll: Unpopular Gas Tax Hike Drives Down O’Malley Approval; Brown Leads In Gov Race; Jon Cardin Ahead For AG

Overwhelming voter disapproval of a gas tax hike earlier this year has helped drive Gov. Martin O’Malley’s job approval rating below 50% for the first time in three years, a new poll found.

The Gonzales Research poll also found marginal support, 49% to 44%, for the repeal of the death penalty O’Malley pushed, but wider support for the gun control measures the governor also backed, 58% to 40%.

The results on guns and the death penalty exhibited a sharp partisan divide, with Democrats strongly approving of O’Malley and his legislative initiatives, while Republicans were strongly opposed.

Cardin will be the next senator for his uncle bill! All he has to do is find more money for his growing voter base.
