Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is tanking in polls with members of his own party. His approval ratings have absolutely collapsed in recent months, even with Democrats in New York.
Over on CNN, data analyst Harry Enten recently looked at the numbers and raised the red flag for Schumer, saying ‘sirens should be going off.’
Enten notes that AOC’s approval ratings are higher than Schumer’s, which just fuels speculation that she is going to challenge him.
Here are Enten’s comments, via RedState:
ENTEN: New York Democrats on Chuck Schumer view him favorably in December of 2024. That was just a few months ago. It was 73 percent. Look at where that number has fallen to in just a few months. It is now down to just 52 percent. That is the lowest I could ever find in Siena College on how Democrats in Chuck Schumer’s home state view him.
And keep in mind, if you’re thinking about a primary challenge, it would be a few years away, but Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s favorable rating among Democrats is considerably higher, in the 60s. So, he is doing quite poorly in his own home state of New York. I never thought I’d see the day in which just 52 percent of New York Democrats would view Chuck Schumer favorably. It’s almost unfathomable…
ENTEN: Yes, it’s because they, simply put, don’t like the job he’s doing as Senate leader. I mean, look at this. Should Schumer stay as Senate leader? Again, according to New York Democrats, just 50 percent say yes. Look at this number, 48 percent say no. This screams sirens should be going off, primary challenge, primary challenge, primary challenge. When you are a Democrat in New York and these are your ratings, this is a big wakeup call if you’re Chuck Schumer, John Berman.

Schumer earned these awful poll numbers and so has his party. For months now, Democrats have offered nothing but protests and rage. The American people are looking for solutions.
