House Speaker John Boehner is disliked by a majority of voters in his home state of Ohio, according to a poll released Friday by the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling.

Just 20 percent of voters polled said they approved of his work in Congress, down from 33 percent in an October PPP poll.

A majority, 59 percent, said they disapproved of Boehner's work. Even Republicans were roughly split on his performance, with 37 percent approving, and 34 percent disapproving, according to the poll.

The poll used automated phone interviews to survey 551 voters between August 16 and August 19.
