The website used data from Morning Consult to compile the list. The governors’ approval ratings are based on survey data collected during the fourth quarter of 2019. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves were not included in the analysis because they assumed office after the surveys were conducted.
