The New York attorney general became nationally known when she sued Donald Trump and his company for civil fraud, but she has other victories under her belt.

More than 30 percent of New York City voters who supported Donald Trump in 2020 approve of the job New York Attorney General Letitia James has done since she was elected in 2018, according to exclusive polling conducted for Newsweek.That's according to a poll conducted from May 12-14 by Redfield & Wilton Strategies, in which 19 percent of Trump voters 'strongly approve' of James' job performance while another 12 percent 'approve.

'That was politically dicey for her to do but she backed it up.'Conor Dowling, a political science professor at the University of Buffalo, says the polling seems to indicate that Trump's messaging against her and others for prosecuting him 'certainly hasn't diminished her image.'Dowling adds, however, that James still remains somewhat of an unknown commodity compared to other politicians, and especially President Joe Biden.
