Voters give President Poroshenko poor marks on the economy, according to a nationwide poll conducted in the second half of December for the International Republican Institute. With Poroshenko facing voters March 31 in a bid for a second term, he comes in third for “Best for the economy,” with about 8.5% approvals, half those of Yulia Tymoshenko, who leads in the poll preferences. Poroshenko comes in 6th place for “Improving social protections of the poor” and “Fighting corruption in state bodies.”
