While most historians start assessing a president the moment they begin a term, it is said to truly judge the impact a president's time in office has had, the country typically needs to wait at least 20 years, perhaps even longer. This may be an unwritten rule, and perhaps may not always hold, but when it comes to approval ratings, Americans don't need to wait a significant amount of time to voice their opinions, they let it be known as soon as a president takes office. This is a state-by-state breakdown of Biden's latest approval ratings.

Joe Biden's approval rating has been on a downward trajectory since he took office, as is the case with most Presidents. But even though the Presidential approval rating that's reported in the news reflects the national average, it's calculated state-by-state. Although Biden is no longer running for re-election, it's still interesting to know what his current approval ratings are.

As of September 2024, it stands at 37 percent approving, with 57 percent disapproving. The approval rating is calculated by a handful of organizations that collect representative samples of the population by randomly polling people by conducting phone conversations, online surveys, or mail-in questionnaires. The question asked is straightforward: Do you approve, disapprove, or have no opinion about Joe Biden's performance? The results are then calculated, tallied, interpreted, and reported to the media.

The state-level information is derived from a quarterly compilation of responses gathered through Morning Consult's ongoing daily U.S. survey of registered voters. The margin of error for registered voters differs from state to state, ranging from a maximum of about 6 percentage points in less populated states like Wyoming to a minimum of around 1 percentage point in highly populated states such as California. (Check out the states where Biden's approval ratings are on the rise.)
