Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's "unfavorable" rating has skyrocketed now that she has become more well-known, according to a new poll from left-leaning Gallup.
The poll, released on Friday, found that the increase in Ocasio-Cortez's "unfavorable" rating in recent months has more than doubled her increase in "favorable ratings."
"Half of U.S. adults were unfamiliar with or had no opinion of her in September after her seismic primary win over the summer, but that figure has shrunk to 29% today," Gallup reported. "But the increased visibility has not improved her overall standing with Americans."
In September, Ocasio-Cortez's "favorable" vs "unfavorable" rating was nearly deadlocked at 24% and 26% respectively, now it stands at 31% and 41% respectively.
Gallup further noted that Ocasio-Cortez's favorable rating was "underwater" among the majority of groups and was only viewed as favorable among 56% of Democrats.
"The congresswoman is viewed negatively by most Republicans, of whom 73% have an unfavorable view of her -- up from 52% in September," Gallup added. "Ocasio-Cortez is also underwater in her net favorable ratings among men (-24), whites (-24) and adults aged 55 and older (-22)."
