One year into his term, Jerry Brown is less popular than any other governor at a similar point in the last 20 years.
Which makes him the most popular politician in California.
The job performance of the once and current Democratic governor (who technically is completing year one of his third term, counting his tenure in the days when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) is viewed favorably by just 47 percent of Californians, a just-released Field Poll shows, compared to 36 percent who have an unfavorable view.
