A couple of issues have been spotted in poll The Hill cites to report Va. Gov. Youngkin underwater in handling of Covid

New governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngkin, was only sworn into office into office a couple of weeks ago, but already we’re seeing polls like this one reported by The Hill:

There are some things worth noting about that poll which we’ll get to in a second, but you know if Ralph Northam was a Republican and Youngkin a Democrat, the angle would be about what an awful situation the new governor inherited.

Hasn’t he been in office less than 2 weeks…

LOL

Dude was sworn in two weeks ago

What a joke of a poll. He’s been in office 2 weeks. And it was a 44-47 within the margin of error.

Oh, and there are a couple other issues with that particular poll. The Hill mentions in the story that the poll commissioned by a left-leaning group and conducted by a left-leaning polling firm. Given that we’d say Youngkin’s numbers in it aren’t all that bad.

"A new poll from the left-leaning firm Public Policy Polling"

"The poll was conducted on behalf of the Coronavirus War Room, which is a project of the left-leaning Protect Our Care."

What a ridiculous story. A poll after two weeks, run by Left wing group that is actively attacking GOP. 🤣 https://t.co/AzJbomT6HJ pic.twitter.com/Br9SOuPOfe

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. They take a leftwing poll after just TEN DAYS in office? You've lost whatever shred of credibility you may have had by publishing this nonsense. https://t.co/dSSHf3SAO8

And that’s after just a few days. Imagine how bad it’ll get in the coming months and years.
