Presidential approval.

Two distinct sources

The headline is a manually curated YouGov job-approval poll of U.S. adult citizens. Historical points are RMG Research polls identified as registered voters by VoteHub’s rv category. Neither series is a national polling average. Favorability, economic approval and voting intention are excluded.

Population and sampling

Registered voters (VoteHub category rv). Original registration and eligibility screening details are not supplied by this feed. VoteHub’s a code means “all voters” in its documentation; it is not assumed to mean adult citizens or all adults. Sample sizes belong to each poll, not the chart as a whole.

Dates, gaps and verification

Points use actual fieldwork end dates on a time axis. No smoothing or interpolation fills historical gaps; lines stop when observations are more than 21 days apart. Only explicitly reported other/unknown answers are retained. Provider created_at dates are stored separately and are not treated as publication dates.

API/schema verification does not independently verify every original questionnaire. Original poll links are available in the table; some may require access through the publisher. History is labeled stale after 14 days without an observation. Fetching a snapshot does not make old polls current.

Rights and attribution

YouGov’s linked public-data terms include CC BY-NC 4.0 and restrictions on automated extraction. This feature uses a single curated reference and contains no YouGov scraper or tracker harvest. Commercial reuse is not presumed authorized. VoteHub’s documented CC BY 4.0 applies to the imported provider records; attribution and original source links are preserved.
