Isn't it remarkable that Rasmussen has shown few polls with Obama with approval over 50%? Read between the lines on Alabama and the Dakotas. He did show Hawaii and Rhode Island as extreme outliers for America as a whole.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Rasmussen polls from  Utah, Louisiana, Kansas, Oklahoma, and West Virginia at any moment.  


Michigan? Oregon? Washington? Minnesota? Massachusetts? Maine? New Hampshire? Hmmm.

I wonder about Georgia, Florida, Indiana, South Carolina, Virginia, Montana, and Colorado.


... Does anyone have any problems if I remove the recordings of the most recent polls in Montana and Utah? Those are the last 2009 polls on the map. Spring housekeeping, so to speak.

New Hampshire is surely anti Obama right now.  I dont think he's holding off on poll releases just because...

Rasmussen polls on a monthly cycle. He'll poll New Hampshire when it comes up in the cycle. Look at the date he did it last month, and he'll do it again approximately the same date in this month.

Connecticut (April 1), Rasmussen, likely voters:

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

Yawn!

I now concede that Rasmussen does a good job of rotating between states.





Mixed approval and favorability (the latter California and Michigan only):



The same key applies to both maps. Take your pick.

Key:


<40% with Disapproval Higher: 40% Orange (50% if 60% or higher disapproval)
40-44% with Disapproval Higher: 50% Yellow  
45-49% with Disapproval Higher: 30% Yellow
<50% with Approval Equal: 10% Yellow (really white)

<50%  Approval greater: 30% Green
50-55%: 40% Green
56-60%: 60% Green
>60%: 80% Green


Months:

A -  January     G -  July
B -  February   H -  August
C -  March        I -  September
D -  April          J  -  October
E -  May           K -  November
F -   June         L -   December

C* -- March 2010, after the passage of Health Care Reform legislation in the House.

S - suspect poll (examples for such a qualification: strange crosstabs, likely inversion of the report (for inversions, only for polls above 55% or below 45%...  let's say Vermont 35% approval or Oklahoma 65% approval), and more than 10% undecided. Anyone who suggests that a poll is suspect must explain why it is suspect.

Z- no recent poll

23 states have checked in since HCR legislation was passed in the House, and of these Alabama has two polls saying the same thing; those in Wisconsin contradict.



deep red                  Obama 10% margin or greater  88
medium red              Obama, 5-9.9% margin  30
pale red                   Obama, margin under 5%  69
white                        too close to call  13
pale blue                  Republican  under 5%  20
medium blue             Republican  5-9.9% margin   20
deep blue                 Republican over 10%

It appears that that high Obama sample has dropped off.

Gallup Obama

Approve: 49% -1

Disapprove: 46% +1



To give some perspective:

Reagan had a 46% disapproval at roughly this point, with a 45% approval.  Carter had 48% approval and 39% disapproval on the monthlies.

27 states have checked in since HCR legislation was passed in the House, and of these Alabama has two polls saying the same thing; those in Wisconsin contradict.
