A slight majority of likely voters are fans of how President Donald Trump is running the country, according to a new poll.

Rasmussen Reports’ daily Presidential Tracking Poll released on Monday was lauded by President Donald Trump, who called the results of his approval rating “Great” on Twitter.

Poll results show:

  • 51% of likely voters say they approve of the job Trump is doing.
  • 48% of likely voters say they disapprove of the job Trump is doing.
  • 40% of likely voters say they strongly approve.
  • 43% of likely voters say they strongly disapprove.

Trump’s approval rating is greater than former President Barack Obama’s was on the same day in 2012. On Sept. 14, 2012, 48% of likely voters said they approved of the job Obama was doing, according to a previous Rasmussen poll. 

“Great, Just Out!,” Trump tweeted Monday morning about the poll results. “51% Approval Rating in Rasmussen Poll. 95% in Republican Party.”

Trump added that the “Stock Market up BIG today” and questioned “Will I ever be given credit for the Markets and Economy?”

“Next year will be BIG!” he concluded his tweet.

Rasmussen polls 500 likely voters each night, the results from which are reported on a three-day rolling average basis. For a full sample of 1,500 likely voters, the poll has a margin of error of +/- 2.5 percentage points.
