Cuomo's popularity falls in polls after gun control laws [View all]

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's popularity has plummeted among Republicans, Democrats and independents after he pushed tougher gun control measures into law after the Connecticut school massacre.

The Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday shows the Democrat dropped from his all-time high approval rating of 74 percent in December to 59 percent now.

Quinnipiac's Maurice Carroll, however, says the results go beyond the gun law and shows concern about Cuomo's liberal turn this year.
