The most popular governors in the U.S. have been revealed and they are all Republican, a new survey has found.
To arrive at these findings, Morning Consult polled more than 5,000 registered voters across the U.S. on a daily basis over several weeks to determine the overall governor's approval rates. These results are released in a report each quarter.
The most recent survey puts Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker at the top of the list as the most-liked governor in the U.S. Coming in at second is Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, who is followed by New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu.
The net approval rating for Republican governors exceeds that of the Democratic governors by 17 points, U.S. News & World Report noted. And while the 10 most popular governors are Republicans, on the opposite end of the scale, eight of the 10 most unpopular governors are Democrats.
