The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 42% of Likely U.S. Voters hold at least a somewhat favorable view of Boehner, up from 37% last month but still down from his peak of 47% in March. The new finding includes 11% with a Very Favorable opinion of the House speaker.

But Boehner’s unfavorables are up to their highest level this year. Forty-four percent (44%) now regard the Ohio congressman at least somewhat unfavorably, up from 36% in June. This includes 22% with a Very Unfavorable opinion. Fourteen percent (14%) are undecided about him. (To see survey question wording, click here.) Last October, before he became Speaker, Boehner’s unfavorables were even higher at 48%.

Sixty-four percent (64%) of voters have an unfavorable opinion of House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, who stepped down as speaker following the GOP takeover of the House in January. This includes 45% with a Very Unfavorable view and ties her worst-ever ratings, last achieved in February. Twenty-eight percent (28%) hold a favorable opinion of the San Francisco congresswoman, with 10% Very Favorable toward her.

Just 27% share a favorable view of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, with seven percent (7%) Very Favorable. The Nevada Democrat is viewed unfavorably by 53%, including 33% with a Very Unfavorable opinion. Twenty percent (20%) have no opinion of him. In late May, Reid’s favorables hit an all-time low of 21%.
