(RCP)- Sen. John McCain got some good and bad news in a new Public Policy Polling survey of the Arizona Senate race (April 23-25, 813 RV, MoE +/- 3.4%). The longtime incumbent polls far better against a Democrat than does his GOP primary opponent, former Rep. J.D. Hayworth.

However, at 34% McCain’s job approval rating is 11 points lower than Obama’s. Less than 50% of Republicans approve of McCain’s job performance, as do only 28% of independents.

With Tucson City Councilman Rodney Glassman (D) unknown to most of the state, McCain bests him in a hypothetical matchup by 16 points while Glassman holds a 3-point lead over Hayworth.

McCain 49 – Glassman 33

Hayworth 39 – Glassman 42
