I'm curious: why?

She still enjoys fairly high approval ratings in her district.

A national poll doesn't mean much. Poll her constituency in San Fran. The only ones that can vote for or against her. I'll bet you see some big differences in the percentages.

FIrst off, the poll you cited isn't a scientific poll by any sense. Secondly, it's open to the national public at large, who don't actually vote for her.

Last I saw (and I don't right now have the time to search for it), she well over 60% in her district, and that's all that matters when it comes to being reelected.
