Gallup Poll - Record Low Approval Rating for Dermocrat Lead Congress
A Gallup poll yesterday showed the Democrat-led Congress' job-approval rating sank to 18%, the lowest rating since Gallup began tracking that public-opinion measurement in 1974. The approval rating dropped nine percentage points since last month as 76% of Americans registered unhappiness with Congress' performance, according to the survey. Voters have not held Congress in such low esteem since Gallup recorded another 18% job-approval rating during the congressional check-bouncing scandal in March 1992 or a 19% rating during crippling gasoline shortages in the summer of 1979. . . .
The poll showed that the negative opinion of Congress is shared across the political spectrum - Democrats gave Congress a 21% job-approval rating, Republicans 18% and independent voters 17% - reflecting impatience with new leadership unable to deliver on promises, including an end to the Iraq war. The nine percentage point drop from last month was a result of further disapproval from Democrats and independents. The rating by Democrats fell 11% points and the rating by independent voters declined 13% points, Gallup said.
