Title: **Obama Full-Month Approval in August Falls to Lowest of His Presidency** Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on September 02, 2011, 07:45:11 AM http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/obama_approval_index_month_by_month
Quote When tracking President Obama’s job approval on a daily basis, people sometimes get so caught up in the day-to-day fluctuations that they miss the bigger picture. To look at the longer-term trends, Rasmussen Reports compiles the numbers on a full-month basis, and the results can be seen in the graphics below. In August, the number who Strongly Approve of Obama’s job performance was at 21%. That’s down three points from 24% in July and the lowest level measured during Obama's entire presidency. The previous low was 23% reached in both April and June of this year. Since July 2009, the number who Strongly Approved of the president’s performance has now ranged from a low of 21% to a high of 31%. By comparison, 43% Strongly Approved of Obama's performance in January 2009. |
