SHAPIRO REMAINS POPULAR IN NEW POLL

A new survey conducted in Pennsylvania shows Governor Josh Shapiro isn’t being blamed for the budget delays. The new Franklin and Marshall poll suggests voters are more likely to blame lawmakers, especially Senate Republicans. Thirty-two percent of respondents say Senate Republicans are responsible for the delay, while 20 percent say it’s the House Democrats’ fault and another 20 percent say it’s the governor’s fault. Even so, the poll found that just under half of those surveyed said Shapiro is doing an “excellent” or “good” job as governor.
