UNDERNEWS: Record percent view front runners unfavorably

Examiner - A record number of people view the Republican and Democratic presidential front-runners poorly, according to a new poll, signaling discontent with the likely party nominees just four months before the national conventions.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton received unfavorability ratings in a new national Fox News poll of registered voters higher than the lows they set last summer.

A net 58 percent in the March 20-22 poll viewed the former secretary of state unfavorably, which was two points worse than her previous low in September. The New York business man was viewed negatively by 65 percent of respondents, up six points from his previous record high of 59 percent last September.

Inimitable -- Mother Jones Magazine

Sam's a cynical cat -- Marion Barry
