Obama's Popularity Non Existent in the South

10/23/2009, by Proloy Bhatta

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Obama has a 27% favorable rating in the South.
  • Only 7% unfavorable rating in the Northeast.
  • Only 47% of those in the south are certain Obama was born in the United States.

Del Ali from Research 2000 ran Obama's favorable ratings by region and found that he is extremely popular outside of the South.

Region Favorable Unfavorable
South 27 68
West 59 32
Midwest 62 30
Northeast 82 7
Entire Country 55 37
Non-Southern States 67 24

One problem with analyzing poll results by subgroups is that you have to carve up the entire sample into smaller subsamples -- which carry with them a larger margin of error. However, the total sample size of the Research 2000 poll is 2,400 adults which is more than sufficient for this kind of an analysis.

"Republicans are heading past minority status toward extinction" says Del Ali.

He also believes that " the majority of white voters in the South have a problem with Barack Obama due to race”. In the south, only 47% are certain that Obama was born in the United States, 90% elsewhere in the country.

Comparing Research 2000's overall numbers with that of other pollsters, we see that they are all in the same range.

Pollster Dates Favorable Unfavorable
AVERAGE   55.8 38.8
CNN 10/16-18 60 39
Research 2000 10/12-15 55 37
FOX 10/13-14 55 41
Gallup 10/1-4 56 40
Quinnipiac 9/29-10/5 53 37
