Obama tends to have favorable ratings that exceed 60% in most of the states listed here. Favorable ratings tend to exceed approval ratings because an adult can have a favorable opinion of a candidate but still disapprove of their job performance.

But because they are not the same question, the reverse is also true. For example, the favorable rating for Obama in Pennsylvania is 45% but his approval rating is 50%.
