President-elect Ollanta Humala's popularity rating has fallen out of bed...by 29 points to 41%...before his 28 July swearing-in...even after he suspended his brother from his political coalition over ethics concerns.
A previous poll, before the brother's scandal was revealed, showed Ollanta with 70% approval.
Humala's brother, Alexis (above, left) met with Gazprom executives in Russia about investing in Peru gas fields.
Ollanta said he did not approve the trip. He had campaigned before the election...against corruption.
