A -14 difference does not make him "extremely unpopular". Merely less than a majority. A 43% rating is higher than Biden has, but no one would say he is "extremely unpopular".
And then there's the fact that it's a -14 difference between his party and everyone else. Given that "everyone else" includes two other major parties, it's pretty much a given that his party has more support than any other party. In comparison:
- In the last Canadian elections, no party got over 34%. In the last 20 years, no party even got 40%.
- In the last UK elections, Boris Johnson got just over 43%. And only once in the last 20 years did someone get more than that.
If IK's party really had 44% of the public's support, they will likely win any election.
