New poll numbers are not looking good for Governor Tom Corbett.

According to a Quinnipiac poll, 51 percent say Corbett should not be re-elected. The governor is seeing extremely low support from women as well.

Polling officials say his approval rating has been slipping over the past years, but some voters support some of the Governor's actions, even if they don't support him for re-election. Especially when it comes to Penn State sanctions.

“Pennsylvania voters we spoke to support the suit against the NCAA, though they don't necessarily support the governor, they support his suit,” commented Quinnipiac Polling Institutes Tim Malloy. “It's a rough road right now for a lot of Governors, and in particular republican new governors of big states.”

53 percent of respondents to the poll said the NCAA sanctions on Penn State were too severe and 43 percent approved of Corbett's court challenge.
