Poll: Obama avg. approval reaches new low

President Obama’s average approval rating for June reached a new monthly low, Gallup finds.

On the other hand Obama’s 61% average approval is still pretty high. One could interpret this drop either as bad news for the administration or the natural evening-out of a new president’s popularity.

To the charts:

As you can see, Obama’s average for June is 1% lower than his previous low of 62% in March. All the same, most presidents would be pretty satisfied with any approval rating about 60%.
