TRENTON -- A new Quinnipiac University poll shows Gov. Chris Christie is now tied for having the lowest job rating among any New Jersey governor in nearly a half-century of polling.

The same poll, released Tuesday, showed New Jersey isn't too crazy about President Donald Trump, either.

But while Trump just set the national record for as the president who was the quickest to have the majority of Americans disapprove of his job performance, he's doing thus far doing better with Garden State voters than the governor.

Here's a sampling of their numbers:

* "Just" 55 percent of New Jersey voters disapprove of the job Trump is doing. That would be pretty bad, unless you compare it to Christie, who has a 78 percent disapproval rating.

* A majority of women (63 percent) and non-white (70 percent) voters disapprove of Trump. Again, bad, except when you consider that 80 percent of women and 82 percent of non-white voters now disapprove of Christie.

* A plurality of Garden State men (47 percent) disapprove and white voters (49 percent) disapprove of the president. More dismal news, but it's a love sonnet in comparison to Christie, who meets with the disapproval of 75 percent of New Jersey male voters, and 76 percent of white voters.

"New Jersey didn't like Donald Trump on Election Day and, even though he seems to enjoy the state as a weekend rendezvous, the Garden State doesn't return the sentiment," said Mickey Carroll, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

Unlike Christie, who faces disapproval from 53 percent of Garden State Republicans, Quinnipiac found most of New Jersey GOP voters approve of the president's job performance: 87 percent approved, while virtually the same number of Democrats disapproved.

Carroll noted, however, that a clear majority of New Jersey voters -- 51 percent to 34 percent -- said they believed President Trump's policies will be bad for the state.

That view cuts across racial lines: While a majority of non-white voters (62 percent) say Trump's policies are bad news for New Jersey, so did a plurality of white voters, by a margin of 47 percent to 39 percent.

The Quinnipiac University survey was conducted from Jan. 26-30 among 1,240 New Jersey voters, and has a margin of error of 2.8 percentage points.
