Al Jazeera English reported that a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows only 32 percent of voters approve of former President Donald Trump’s job performance. The poll, released on the eve of the United States midterm elections, places Trump’s approval near a record low. The finding reflects a sharp decline in public support for the former president as voters head to the polls.
The poll’s results were highlighted as a key indicator of the political climate ahead of the upcoming elections, suggesting that Trump’s standing with the electorate has weakened considerably.
Why it matters
The low approval rating signals waning public support for Trump, which could influence voter behavior in the midterm elections.
