Arizona Governor Gains Popularity After Signing Immigration Law

Rasmussen Reports published a survey of voters in Arizona which shows that 56% approve of the way Governor Jan Brewer is performing as governor, compared to just 40% two weeks ago, before she signed and defended a controversial immigration law allowing police to stop and verify the immigration status of anyone they suspect of being an illegal immigrant.  This new bump also has her beating her Democratic opponent, who opposes the law, 48% to 40%, which is four points higher than she polled against him two weeks ago. This bump makes sense as the new law holds favor with 64% of Arizonans.
