With the drumbeat of bad news from Iraq seeming to die down and the administration’s handover of sovereignty to the Iraqi people last month, the president’s job approval numbers are up slightly to 48 percent over the historic low it hit in May (42 percent). Nearly half (46 percent) still disapprove. That low-point in the president’s approval rating may have been a statistical blip during a week of unceasing bad and bloody news from the warfront in Iraq; with the bounce back up to the high 40s, the president’s approval rating is where it has been more of less consistently since January. The percentage of voters who express a favorable view of the president has also moved back to the halfway mark (51 percent) after dipping to 46 percent in May.

For the NEWSWEEK poll, Princeton Survey Research Associates interviewed 1,169 adults aged 18 and older July 8 and 9 by telephone. The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.
