Gallup: Obama suffers huge Q3 drop in job approval

http://www.gallup.com/poll/123806/Obama-Quarterly-Approval-Average-Slips-Nine-Points.aspx

 

Quoting from the article:

 

PRINCETON, NJ – In Gallup Daily tracking that spans Barack Obama’s third quarter in office (July 20 through Oct. 19), the president averaged a 53% job approval rating. That is down sharply from his prior quarterly averages, which were both above 60%.

Barack Obama's Quarterly Job Approval Averages

In fact, the 9-point drop in the most recent quarter is the largest Gallup has ever measured for an elected president between the second and third quarters of his term, dating back to 1953. One president who was not elected to his first term – Harry Truman – had a 13-point drop between his second and third quarters in office in 1945 and 1946.
