Bush approval at an all-time low

According to the latest Newsweek poll President Bush’s approval rating has fallen to 28%, the lowest score for a president since Jimmy Carter in 1979. That is the second poll I’ve seen lately with Bush’s approval under 30%. I’m really interested in seeing Bush approval in North Carolina right now. Has he fallen to an all-time North Carolina low too? We’ll have to wait for the Civitas poll and maybe PPP will do a similar poll this month too.

  1. What are the historical numbers in NC? What would be "lowest ever" for him here vs other sitting presidents?

  2. That's a good question. The only outfits to do regular polling on NC have only existed in the last few years; Civitas, Elon, PPP and Survey USA.

    Survey USA had Bush at 35% approval in NC in May of '06. That's the lowest figure that I know of.
