14. Collins has never had approval ratings anywhere close to as low as they are now.

PPP’s new Maine poll finds that voters in the state- across party lines- have concerns with Susan Collins. Her approval rating is only 24%, with 61% of voters disapproving of her. She faces strong disapproval from both Harris (17/71) and Trump (30/52) voters alike.

That's -37% net.

In the past, she always was able to maintain a close to even net approval at worst. She now has the worst approval ratings of any senator. She's done for. In fact, I'd say an alternate Republican would have a much better chance of winning than she does at this point. I kind of expect her to retire.

She was nowhere near even six years ago FBaggins Jun 30 #16

PPP had her at -15% net approval in 2020. Not remotely close to as bad as now. Wiz Imp Jun 30 #17
