Obama's rating falls under 60%

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 38% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Twenty-seven percent (27%) Strongly Disapprove to give Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of +11.

Overall, 58% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President’s performance so far while 41% disapprove. For most of his time in office, the President’s overall approval rating has stayed between 60% and 62%. Over the past three days, it has been slightly below the 60% level. It remains to be seen whether this modest decline represents lasting change or is merely statistical noise.
