Even worse for the Dems, only 17% strongly approve of Obama versus 44% who strongly disapprove.
Via WaPo:
We’ve written plenty on this blog about Democrats’ enthusiasm deficit in the 2014 election. This gap was, is and will almost definitely continue to be real through Nov. 4.
But while it’s well understood that Obama’s unpopularity is driving GOP enthusiasm, we haven’t really studied the inverse — i.e. just how little Obama’s presidency is motivating Democrats to vote. […]
The AP-GfK poll asked the approve/disapprove question, finding 17 percent of likely voters said they strongly approve of Obama and 44 percent strongly disapprove. But then it asked a separate — and we would argue, more enlightening — question about the Obama administration. It asked how people felt about it, and gave them four options: “enthusiastic,” “satisfied but not enthusiastic,” “dissatisfied but not angry,” and “angry.”
