Mayor slides down latest poll

A new poll has found that Mayor Bloomberg’s approval ratings have slipped slightly.

The Quinnipiac University survey released yesterday found that 61 percent of Big Apple voters approve of the job Bloomberg is doing.

While that’s still a high approval rating, it’s his lowest in five years.

It’s down from 67 percent in September, and his lowest since a 60 percent rating in 2005.

Quinnipiac says many Americans are unhappy with incumbents as the economy continues to limp along.

The poll has a margin of error of 2.8 percentage points.
