Trump Posts Best Net Approval of 2019 in Month He Was Impeached

Among states being watched closely ahead of this fall’s election, Trump saw the best month-to-month improvement in his approval in Maine, which splits its Electoral College votes and is home to GOP Sen. Susan Collins, among the most vulnerable senators up for re-election this year. Forty-six percent of Maine voters approve of Trump and 52 percent disapprove.

As has been the case in recent months, Trump’s worst showing in battleground states was in New Hampshire, where 39 percent approve of his job performance and 58 percent disapprove. That 19-point deficit is followed closely by his approval in Michigan, where 40 percent approve and 55 percent disapprove and his net approval has dropped 5 points since September.

Trump received positive ratings from voters in 15 states, with his best marks coming in Wyoming, Alabama and West Virginia. Notably, he’s treading water in Texas and Georgia -- two places that have been friendly to the GOP in the past but where Democrats sense opportunity. 

In Florida, Trump’s newly declared homestate, which he won in 2016 by just over 1 point, 48 percent of voters approve of him and 49 percent disapprove.
