Washington, DC, June 2, 2022 – This week’s Ipsos Core Political has President Joe Biden back up to a 42% approval rating.
Detailed Findings
The economy (27%), crime or corruption (12%), the healthcare system (9%), and the environment (7%) are the most important problems facing the U.S. today. Democrats’ and independents’ top issues align with these but Republicans are more concerned about immigration (10%) and morality (7%) than the healthcare system (4%) and the environment (3%).
After a decrease last week, President Biden’s approval rating is back to where it was two weeks ago at 42%, with 52% disapproving of him.
Approval of President Biden among Democrats has increased six points since last week to 78%, but independents (37%) and Republicans (12%) remain largely disapproving of him.
About the Study
These are some of the findings of an Ipsos poll conducted between May 31- June 1, 2022. For this survey, a sample of 1,005 Americans age 18+ from the continental U.S., Alaska, and Hawaii were interviewed online in English. The sample includes 435 Democrats, 371 Republicans, and 134 independents. Weighting was then employed to balance demographics to ensure that the sample's composition reflects that of the adult population according to Census data and to provide results intended to approximate the sample universe. The precision of Ipsos online polls is measured using a credibility interval. In this case, the poll is accurate to within ± 3.8 percentage points, 19 times out of 20, had all Americans been polled. The credibility interval will be wider among subsets of the population. All sample surveys and polls may be subject to other sources of error, including but not limited to coverage error and measurement error. The poll also has a credibility interval of ± 5.8 percentage points for Democrats, ± 6.2 percentage points for Republicans, and ± 10.4 percentage points for independents.
