Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is not enjoying much of a home court advantage of late.
A new Marquette Law School poll finds that Walker's approval rating in Wisconsin has fallen to 41 percent, with 56 percent surveyed saying they disapproved of how he is handling his job. The 41 percent figure is the lowest recorded since the Marquette poll began surveying registered voters three years ago. In October of 2014, the poll found that 49 percent of voters in Wisconsin approved of the way Walker was handling his duties as governor, while 47 percent disapproved.
