Gov. Spencer Cox’s job approval ratings are still climbing, from Republicans and Democrats alike.
A new Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll found 66% of Utahns approve of Cox’s job performance, up from 63% in a February poll. Of those, 24% said they strongly approve and 42% saying they somewhat approve. That’s while only 23% say they disapprove, with 15% saying they somewhat disapprove and only 8% strongly disapproving.
About 11% of Utahns say they’re still unsure how they feel about the new governor, who has now been on the job for about four months.
