THE WMUR GRANITE STATE POLL

THE WMUR GRANITE STATE POLL July 22, 2016 OBAMA S POPULARITY, JOB APPROVAL STEADY IN THE WANING MONTHS OF HIS PRESIDENCY By: Andrew E. Smith, Ph.D. Zachary S. Azem, M.A. UNH Survey Center 603/862-2226 www.unh.edu/survey-center DURHAM, NH With only months left in his presidency, President Barack Obama s job approval and personal favorability rating have remained steady in New Hampshire, and are at levels considerably higher than George W. Bush s at this point in his second term. However, a majority of New Hampshire residents continue to think the country is headed in the wrong direction. These findings are based on the latest WMUR Granite State Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Five hundred and thirty-two (532) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between July 9 and July 18, 2016. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 4.2 percent. Included were four hundred and sixty-nine (469) likely 2016 general election voters (MSE = +/- 4.5%). Presidential Approval President Obama s overall job approval rating has remained steady since April -- currently, 49% of New Hampshire adults say they approve of the job Obama is doing as president, 44% disapprove, and 6% are neutral. Obama s popularity, which will likely be a factor in the 2016 presidential election, is considerably better than George W. Bush s at this point in his second term (24% approve, 72% disapprove). 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 66% 63%61% 40% 33% 29% 21% 55% 55% 48% 50% 51% 51% 53%49%49% 50%49% 52% 49% 53% 50% 48% 49% 49% 51%53% 55%55% 53% 50% 52% 48% 48%48% 50% 49% 47%46% 44% 46%46% 44% 46% 41% Barack Obama Approval, All NH Adults 47% 47% 47% 47% 44% 45% 47%45% 46% 43% 42% 44%45%45% 44% 42%39% 38%38% 42% 40% Approve Disapprove We ask that this copyrighted information be referred to as the Granite State Poll, sponsored by WMUR-TV and conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center.

Granite State Poll Methodology These findings are based on the latest WMUR Granite State Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center and funded by WMUR-TV, Manchester, NH. Five hundred and thirty-two (532) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed in English by landline and cellular telephone between July 9 and July 18, 2016. If a household included more than one adult, the adult who had the most recent birthday was selected to be interviewed. The margin of sampling error is +/- 4.2 percent for the entire sample. Included were four hundred sixty-nine (469) likely 2016 general election voters (MSE +/- 4.5%). These MSE s have not been adjusted for design effect. The design effect for the survey is 1.1%. The random sample used in the WMUR Granite State Poll was purchased from Marketing Systems Group (MSG), Horsham, PA. MSG screens each selected telephone number to eliminate non-working numbers, disconnected numbers, and business numbers to improve the efficiency of the sample, reducing the amount of time interviewers spend calling non-usable numbers. The data have been weighted to adjust for numbers of adults and telephone lines within households. Additionally, data were weighted by respondent sex, age, and region of the state to targets from the most recent American Community Survey (ACS) conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau. In addition to potential sampling error, all surveys have other potential sources of non-sampling error including question order effects, question wording effects, and non-response. Due to rounding, percentages may not sum to 100%. The number of respondents in each demographic below may not equal the number reported in cross-tabulation tables as some respondents choose not to answer some questions.
