Bush Job Approval: One Point Above All-Time Low

Sunday, August 03, 2008

During the month of July, 33% say they approved of the way that George W. Bush is performing his job as President. That’s up a point from the all-time low reached in June. Still, it’s the fourth straight month that Bush’s approval has been at or below the 33% level. Prior to that four month stretch, it had never been below 34%.

Sixty-five percent (65%) now disapprove, matching the highest total on record.

The July figures include 13% who Strongly Approve and 46% who Strongly Disapprove.

During July, the number of people who considered themselves to be Democrats fell two percentage points to the lowest level since January.

Rasmussen Reports updates the President's Job Approval on a weekly basis based upon nightly telephone interviews with 500 adults. Weekly results include interviews with 3,500 adults. Full month results are based upon interviews with 15,000 adults. In any review of Job Approval data, the trends are more important than the precise number. Many factors, especially question wording, can impact the particular approval rating percentage.

Like all polling firms, Rasmussen Reports weights its data to reflect the population at large. Among other targets, Rasmussen Reports weights data by political party affiliation using a dynamic weighting process. Our baseline targets are established based upon survey interviews with a sample of adults nationwide completed during the preceding three months (a total of 45,000 interviews). For the month of August, the targets are 40.6% Democrat, 31.6% Republican, and 27.8% unaffiliated. For July, the targets were 41.4% Democrat, 31.5% Republican, and 27.1% unaffiliated (see party trends and analysis).

Rasmussen Reports is an electronic publishing firm specializing in the collection, publication, and distribution of public opinion polling information.
