by Michael Patrick Leahy1 Nov 2017

A Politico/Morning Consult poll released on Tuesday for the third quarter shows plunging approval ratings for most incumbent senators from both parties among all voters.

Republican establishment senators aligned with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) see even more dramatic declines in their net approval ratings among likely Republican primary voters, as reported in “DATA DU JOUR – per Morning Consult,” by Politico Playbook:

    The average senator’s approval ranking has dropped by eight net percentage points since the first quarter of 2017. … Among the 25 senators with the largest approval drops over this time period, 18 are Republicans and 7 are Democrats. … Susan Collins’ net approval among Maine Republicans dropped from +38% to -2% over the last quarter, a 40 point swing. Lisa Murkowski’s net approval among Alaska Republicans dropped from +33% to +2%, a 31 point swing.

    Dean Heller’s net approval among Nevada Republicans dropped from +41% to +16%, a 25 point swing. McConnell is the least popular senator and growing increasingly unpopular: The Senate Majority Leader maintains his title as the least popular senator in America, with 33% of Kentucky voters approving and 55% disapproving. This represents a net 15% drop since Q2.

First off, the article said that there were GOP'ers having problems in polls yet I couldn't find one named in said article. Secondly, we has this discrepancy....

… Susan Collins’ net approval among Maine Republicans dropped from +38% to -2% over the last quarter, a 40 point swing.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), with a 62 percent approval, 30 percent disapproval rating.

So which is it?

Aren't their approval ratings down in the teens?  Can it really be considered a "free fall" from that low?
