YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"Two prominent advocates of the GOP's strategy to defund Obamacare in a government funding bill, Sens. Ted Cruz and Mike Lee, have seen their favorability numbers drop in separate new polls.

Lee's favorability in his home state of Utah is down 10 points since June, according to a new poll from Brigham Young University. Overall, voters see Lee unfavorably, 51 percent to 40 percent. Broken down by degree, 40 percent had a "very unfavorable" view of Lee, and 11 percent had a "somewhat unfavorable" view of him.

In June, the same poll found almost the mirror image, with 50 percent of voters viewing him favorably and 41 percent viewing him unfavorably."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
