It is also the LOWEST approval rating for Obama since Inauguration Day on January 20, 2009.
Those polled disapproved 49 to 45 percent of the way Obama is handling the economy, and disapproved 52 to 39 percent of the way he is handling health care reform this summer. When it comes to foreign policy, however, Obama fared better, with a 52 to 38 percent approval rating.
Along party lines, just 16 percent of Republicans approved of Obama's job performance, while 85 percent of Democrats did. Independent voters split evenly in their overall approval of Obama, down from 52 percent in a July 2 poll.
The poll was conducted from July 27 to August 3, and surveyed 2,409 registered voters across the U.S.. It has a margin of error of two percentage points.
