Kamala Harris Approval Rating

Harris' Favorability Ratings Plummet, Lagging Behind Xi and Putin

Low Approval Compared to Other World Leaders

According to data from FiveThirtyEight, Harris's current approval rating is -15%, with 39% approving and 54% disapproving. This marks a sharp decline from April when she had a net approval rating of -16%. The poll, conducted by HarrisX for Forbes, surveyed 1918 registered voters between July 13th and 15th.

Disparaging Comparison to World Leaders

Harris's approval ratings pale in comparison to those of other world leaders. A recent survey by USA Today showed that Chinese President Xi Jinping has a median approval rating of 18% among adults, while Russian President Vladimir Putin's approval rating is also higher than Harris's.

Historical Context

Harris's low approval ratings follow a trend of decreasing popularity for vice presidents in recent years. In November 2021, USA Today reported that Harris's approval rating was at 28%, making her one of the least popular vice presidents in modern history.

Conclusion

As Harris continues to navigate her role as vice president, her favorability ratings remain a concern. Her current approval rating of -15% is significantly lower than that of other world leaders and highlights the challenges she faces in gaining public support.
