Quinnipiac University:

58% Approve
30% Disapprove

President Obama wins 90 - 4 percent approval from Democrats and 53 - 33 percent approval from independent voters, while Republicans disapprove 59 - 26 percent. Black voters approve 93 - 1 percent, White voters 53 - 35 percent. There is a 10-point gender gap, as women approve 63 - 25 percent while men approve 53 - 35 percent.

From April 21 - 27, Quinnipiac University surveyed 2,041 registered voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 2.2 percentage points.

Hey at least they were able to find 1% of blacks that disapproved, CBSNews found 0.

Apparently Michael Steele couldn't answer the phone when the CBS pollster called but he was there for the Quinnipiac one.

He won't talk to CBS. They are commie, duh.

my professor runs that poll and I got a 26 page update of it that I have to read for class tomorrow ... and my question that I had proposed didn't get into the poll as I had a remote hope for.

What was your question?

Just asking people if they feel that their tax rates have gone up over last year.

That won't happen, silly. You see, America hates the GOP so much that they won't ever disapprove of Obama because they know the alternative!

I don't know, with GOP reactions like that, I'd say that it's pretty amusing right now. Smiley

Latest update:



Indiana, anyone? Louisiana? Mississippi? Montana?

First, the bad news for Obama/good news for the GOP:

One new net-negative: Oklahoma, and it is extremely close in one of the most right-wing states in America.

Now the good news for Obama: Oklahoma is one of the most right-wing states in America, and it is perhaps the only state that will vote for every imaginable GOP nominee in 2012.

Louisiana suggests a positive trend in a raft of states in the WV-LA crescent that voted strongly against Obama but voted for Clinton. Recent approval polls suggest that Obama could win such against any Republican except perhaps Huckabee (and I recognize the significance of cultural geography in voting).

Hamilton Campaigns (D) for Evan Bayh:

61% Favorable
38% Unfavorable

That's better than I expected, although I guess his job approval will be about 56-58.

FYI:

Hamilton Campaigns doesn't seem to be a DEM hack poll institute, as they had Obama up by 4 in Florida (47-43) a few weeks before the election.

In FL-24, they even showed Kosmas (D) trailing Incumbent Rep. Feeney (R) by 42-43, but Kosmas beat Feeney by 57-41 in the General election.

In FL-25 they had Rep. Diaz-Balart (R) ahead by 3 (45-42),  he won by 53-47.

Not really. Rasmussen recently had him at 54-46 and Strategic Vision at 55-39.

Or Georgia voters don't like Obama personally, but like what he's doing ... Tongue

No, according to Howey Politics, Obama's approval rating in Indiana is 61-36.
