Whitmer's job approval beats Trump's job approval in Michigan, poll finds
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has maintained a steady job approval rating with a majority of Michigan voters despite election-year sniping by President Donald Trump, whose job approval is about 15 percentage points lower, according to a Detroit News-WDIV-TV poll released Tuesday.
Nearly 54% of Michigan voters view the Democratic governor favorably and 59% approve of the job she's doing

"The presidential numbers and Gov. Whitmers numbers are so interconnected here," Czuba said. "Just as President Trump is getting shellacked in southeast Michigan, Gov. Whitmer is getting her strongest numbers in southeast Michigan.
In addition, Czuba said, Whitmer is doing "very well" with outstate women. This development "undercuts Republican strength just as it's undercutting the presidents campaign right now," he said. - Detroit News

Reminds me of another popular rock star like democrat. But who might that me?
Hillary Clinton had favorability polls in the mid-60's - until she became the candidate against DJT.
