ABC/WaPo: Obama’s Popularity Hits Highest Mark Since ‘09

Last edited Wed Jan 30, 2013, 10:33 AM - Edit history (1)

President Barack Obama's personal popularity has returned to a level unseen since the early stages of his first term in office, according to the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll released Wednesday.

Sixty percent of American adults said they have a favorable opinion of Obama, according to the survey, representing the highest mark for the President in ABC/WaPo's polling since November of 2009.

According to ABC/WaPo, Obama's favorability rating at the outset of his second term is higher than that of George W. Bush at a comparable point in his presidency but lower than former Presidents Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan when they began the latter half of their time in the White House.
