The only three states where Biden’s approval is above water are:

• Hawaii: 49 percent approval, 42 percent disapproval
• Massachusetts: 48 percent approval, 39 percent disapproval
• Vermont: 49 percent approval, 39 percent disapproval

Overall, the poll showed Biden with only 35 percent approval from the respondents and a 56 percent disapproval, with nine percent having no opinion. The poll showed Biden with net approval of negative 20.

Nearly one full year in office, Biden has seen some of the lowest approval ratings after dealing with many problems such as the supply chain crisis, record-high inflation, and botched Afghanistan withdrawal. Additionally, the “marquee legislation” of Biden’s legislation agenda, the $1.75 trillion Build Back Better Act (BBB), was effectively killed in the Senate after Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) said he could not vote to pass it.

 

The CIVIQS rolling job approval average had 147,731 responses tracked between January 20 and January 4, just less than a whole year of Biden being in office.

The CIVIQS tracking model is meant to capture the shifts in attitude of various groups over time across all 50 states and Washington, DC. These changes can happen either over time or rapidly.
