Bad Polls for Bloomberg

How’s Mayor Bloomberg’s third-term election bid looking? Not too hot according to a new poll from Marist University. Bloomberg led likely rival Anthony Weiner 51 to 37, but Marist pollster Lee Miringoff said “51 percent is about as slim as a majority as you can have at this point.” Weiner and other potential rival, Bill Thompson, have been railing against Bloomberg’s revoking of New York City’s term limits. Bloomberg’s approval rating also fell to a three-year low of 59 percent.
