Leger regularly surveys Americans on President Biden and Vice President Harris’ approval ratings.

  • 41% of Americans approve of the way Joe Biden is handling his job as president.
  • 39% of Americans approve of the way Kamala Harris is handling her job as vice president.

SURVEY METHODOLOGY

A web survey was conducted among 1,002 Americans, 18 years of age or older, randomly recruited from LEO’s online panel.

The data was collected from August 5 to 7, 2022.

For comparison purposes, a probability sample of 1,002 respondents would have a margin of error of ±3.1%, 19 times out of 20.

Using 2010 U.S. Census reference variables, the data was weighted according to gender, age, region, race/ethnicity, household size and education level in order to render a representative sample of the general population.
