Per Civiqs, Joe Biden Is Under 50 Percent in Every Single State

Civiqs has Joe Biden’s approval rating underwater with voters in all but four states: Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Vermont. In none of those four states does Biden’s approval rating hit 50 percent.

The poll makes brutal reading for the president, and, if it is even close to accurate (in presidential elections, Civiqs’s polls tend to skew toward the Democrats), then there is almost nothing that he will be able to do to prevent his party from a disastrous midterm showing. Among independents, his approve-disapprove rating is 22-67. Among Republicans, it is 2-96. Among Democrats, it is 72-13. There is no age group that approves of him (he is most unpopular among 18-34 year-olds, with a 26-59 approve-disapprove). There is no education level that approves of him, with even postgraduates disapproving 39-51. And, while he does better with women (39-50) than men (29-64), neither seem to like him much. As for Hispanics, the slide continues apace; Biden is at 43-45.

Even the blue stalwarts seem to have abandoned him. In California and New York, he is underwater by 10 points. In New Jersey he is underwater by 6. In Illinois he is down 9. In Connecticut, he is down 11. In Delaware, his home state, he is underwater by 20. The news is terrible in key 2022 states such as Arizona (-29), Colorado (-17), Georgia (-18), Nevada (-23), Ohio (-30), Pennsylvania (-21), New Hampshire (-10), Texas (-34), and Florida (-24).

As for convincing Senator Manchin to break his vow and get on board with Biden’s sprawling “Build Back Better” agenda? Forget it. This president is more unpopular in West Virginia than in any other state in the union. 16 percent of West Virginians approve of him; 79 percent disapprove. That’s a gap of 63.
