Northern America by Frank Newport PRINCETON, NJ -- President Bush's job approval rating is at 25% in the latest Oct. fa0iw_rf k6ev25uokegitqoxqzhlbw Bush's previous low point was 27%, measured about a week ago. The 25% approval rating is one point higher than Richard Nixon's lowest job approval rating of 24% measured in the summer of 1974, and it is just three points higher than Harry Truman's all-time Gallup low job approval rating of 22% measured in 1952. No other presidents have had job approval ratings of 27% or lower in Gallup Poll history. The current poll recording Bush's low job approval rating was conducted after Congress passed the economic rescue bill on Oct. Indeed, only 55% of members of Bush's own party approve of him in the poll, perhaps a reflection of some pushback from conservatives who do not strongly support the economic bill. Nineteen percent of independents and 5% of Democrats approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president. b5y8pvk_guikqknwoegqwa Survey Methods Results are based on telephone interviews with 1,011 national adults, aged 18 and older, conducted Oct. For results based on the total sample of national adults, one can say with 95% confidence that the maximum margin of sampling error is 3 percentage points. Interviews are conducted with respondents on landline telephones (for respondents with a landline telephone) and cellular phones (for respondents who are cell phone only). In addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of public opinion polls.
