Nearly two years into a budget stalemate and a pricey political war between Gov. Bruce Rauner and Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, there’s no clear winner — or loser — when it comes to the court of public opinion.
In an Illinois unpopularity contest, a new poll finds Madigan and Rauner in a statistical tie in disapproval ratings.
Three out of five voters had a negative opinion of each politician’s job performance.
While Madigan slightly edged out Rauner’s disapproval rating, 61 percent to 58 percent, the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute poll released Wednesday has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
