Here’s a boost for the Fenty advocates behind the “recall Vince Gray” movement: according to a Washington Post poll which was released over the weekend, 56 percent of registered voters now approve of the job Adrian Fenty did as mayor.

The figures show a nine-point leap from where the Fenty was polling right before last fall’s Democratic primary. Given the general disdain most appear to have for anything related to city government at the moment, Fenty’s numbers are relatively strong — and he’s rebounded close to the approval numbers Anthony Williams was getting near to the end of his second term.

Of course, the big question is whether Fenty envisions himself with a political future in the District — and on that matter, only he knows: he didn’t comment about the poll when asked by the Post.
