Obama’s Favorable Rating Up To 58%; Ratings Jump For Democrats

Submitted by Cheston Catalano

This is the president’s highest rating since 2009.

Obama’s favorable rating is 3 points higher than it was a week before the election, although it’s still below his 68 percent rating immediately after winning the 2008 election.

The Democratic Party as a whole saw a more significant jump in its favorability rating, which rose 6 points to 51 percent. A majority of Americans now hold positive views of the party for the first time since mid-2009.
