Hispanics Approval of Obama 70%, Up 12 Pts. Since August

Posted on February 5, 2013 by TRP

In January, 70% of Hispanics approved of the job President Barack Obama was doing, down slightly from 75% in December. However, the January measure still represents an increase of 12 percentage points since last August, just prior to the Democratic National Convention.

 

The results are based on Gallup Daily tracking throughout January. During that time, Gallup polled 1,288 Hispanics, with roughly one-third of those interviews conducted in Spanish.

The timing of the increase in Obamas approval rating among Hispanics suggests the presidential election campaign may have been a significant factor in Hispanics renewed enthusiasm for him, starting with the Democratic National Convention in early September through the election and the initial post-election phase. According to the National Exit Poll, Hispanics voted for Obama over Mitt Romney by 71% to 27%.
