in my newest @goodauth post, I adjust the approval ratings for statewide politicians to see what they would look like if those states had the same partisan balance as the country as a whole. @AndyBeshearKY stands out even more with these adjusted ratings

Andy Beshear stands out for being remarkably popular given the politics of Kentucky.

1) having a democratic political system
2) having a strong leader who does not have to bother with parliament and elections
What percent says *both* are good?
44%!
