CHARLESTON, W.Va. — New survey results show President Joe Biden’s rating is low among West Virginians, while more than half of state residents strongly approve of Gov. Jim Justice’s job performance.

Biden’s overall approval rating was 32 percent and disapproval rating was 65 percent.

About 69 percent of West Virginia voters are applauding Gov. Justice for his work since taking office in 2017. His disapproval rate was 28 percent.

U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) has an overall job approval rating of 60 percent compared to Biden’s 32 percent.
