The Rasmussen Daily Tracking Poll for September 15, 2009 shows President Barack Obama with a total approval rating of 50% and a total disapproval rating of 50%. This is a net change of -4% from yesterday’s poll. The Rasmussen Presidential Approval Index stands at -4.
In addition, Rasmussen’s Poll shows that the bump President Obama’s health care proposal received after last week’s speech to Congress is dissipating:
Support for the President’s health care proposal has been increasing daily over the past week. However, today’s tracking results show support falling for the first time since the speech. Forty-five percent (45%) now favor passage of the Congressional health care reform plan, a figure that’s up just a single point since the speech. Fifty-two percent (52%) are now opposed. Those figures include 23% who Strongly Favor the plan and 41% who are Strongly Opposed.
