Iowa Poll: Joni Ernst's approval rating slips as she mounts reelection campaign

According to a new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll, Ernst’s approval rating has slipped from a high point of 57% in February 2019 to 47% today.

Still, 41% of likely voters say they would definitely vote to re-elect her if the election were held today, while 31% say they would definitely vote to elect someone else. Another 20% say they would consider voting for someone else, 3% say they would not vote and 6% are unsure.

...

Elections analysts rate the race as “leaning Republican.” But the campaigning is only just taking off in earnest after presidential campaigns sucked up much of Iowa’s political oxygen in the year leading up to the February 2020 caucuses.

The poll of 800 Iowa adults, which includes 667 likely voters, was conducted by Selzer & Co., March 2-5. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points for Iowa adults and plus or minus 3.8 percentage points for likely voters.
