The poll indicated that “The 38% of voters who say Biden deserves a second term is slightly lower than the 41% of Americans who approve of the job he is doing in the same survey.”
A Gallup survey released on Friday found that fewer than 40% of American voters feel US President Joe Biden deserves to be reelected.
His public favor rating has been below 50% since August 2021, raising concerns among his fellow Democrats as he prepares for a rematch with Republican former President Donald Trump in November.
The poll indicated that “The 38% of voters who say Biden deserves a second term is slightly lower than the 41% of Americans who approve of the job he is doing in the same survey.”
The large majority of Democrats (82%) believe Biden should be reelected to the president, as do 29% of independents and 3% of Republicans.
In regards to congressional elections, the 24% who think members are worthy of reelection is lower than in all former elections except in 2012 when only 20% thought so.
A Reuters/Ipsos survey released on Wednesday indicated that the current president’s approval rating has yet again dipped as Americans grow more concerned about the economy and immigration as the Democrat ramped up his reelection campaign.
Only 38% of the Friday survey respondents approved of Biden’s work as President, a decrease from 40% in December.
According to a recent ABC News/Ipsos survey, Donald Trump leads his Republican opponents in key popularity indicators as the 2024 primary season begins, while Joe Biden’s job approval rating has dipped to the lowest rating for any president in the last 15 years.
According to the most recent survey, 17% of respondents believe immigration is the most critical issue facing the United States now, up from 11% in December. It was the top issue of Republican respondents, with 36% claiming it as their major worry, compared to 29% who listed the economy.
Biden’s administration has struggled to deal with an influx of asylum seekers at the US-Mexico border, while Republicans in Congress, emboldened by Trump, have threatened to derail a bipartisan effort to address the issue. They are moving forward with an impeachment motion against Biden’s top border officer, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Majorkas.
The economy remained Americans’ top concern, highlighted by 22% of survey respondents, as they grappled with inflation and other COVID-19 pandemic consequences.
Almost two-thirds of respondents, including 47% of Democrats, believe the nation is on the wrong path.
