Questions about this average
What is Trump's approval rating today?
Trump's job approval stands at 37.5% approve and 59.8% disapprove (net −22.3) in the ElectionsUSA average of 49 polls, as of November 5, 2026.
How has it changed over the last month?
Approval is 2.7 points higher than 30 days ago, when the average stood at 34.8%.
How is this average calculated?
Every poll is weighted by how recent it is (a 14-day half-life), its sample size, the pollster's track record and how often the firm publishes, so a daily tracker can't dominate. The method is fully described on the methodology page and can be reproduced from the open data. Read the method.
Which polls are included?
Every public national poll we can source, 182 on record for this page and 49 carrying weight today. Each row in the table links to the pollster's own release; adult, registered-voter and likely-voter polls all count, but a poll released for several populations counts once (likely voters first).
How often is it updated?
Automatically, every six hours: new polls are collected, checked and added, and the average and chart are recomputed.
Can I use this data?
Yes. Every poll is free to download as CSV, and every average as JSON, under CC BY 4.0. Please credit ElectionsUSA with a link. Download the data.

The page shows the latest 50. All 182 polls, with weights, are in the JSON; every poll and population is in polls.csv.
Click a pollster for its accuracy record and every poll it has released; ↗ opens the poll's source. Rows marked ⓘ carry a note (for example, fieldwork dates inferred from press coverage). Weight is the poll's share of the current average after recency, sample-size, pollster-quality and frequency adjustments.
About this average
Approval is the most frequently polled question in American politics, so this tracker uses a short 14-day half-life and damps pollsters that publish weekly so no single tracker dominates. Adult, registered-voter and likely-voter polls all count, one population per poll (likely voters first); registered and likely-voter samples typically read one to three points more favourable for the president than all-adult samples.
