SPRINGFIELD -- A new poll says Governor Pat Quinn is the most unpopular governor in the country. Last week, it was reported only 25% of voters approve of Quinn's performance.

A separate poll shows if a general election were held today, Governor Quinn would lose to treasurer Dan Rutherford. It also shows Quinn would just narrowly win to Congressman Aaron Schock.

The Governor was in Central Illinois Wednesday. He says he's not worried about why so few people support him, he's just doing all he can to repair the damage left by his predecessors.
