Gallop Polling reports that the 50% approval mark is notable because all incumbent presidents since Eisenhower who were at or above 50% approval at the time of the election were re-elected. Obama’s job approval rating has typically been in the mid-40% range for the last three months.
The poll shows that over the last two days, the President’s approval rating stayed at 50%. The poll also shows that President leads Mitt Romney – the presumptive Republican nominee – by 7 points, 49% to 42%.
