Sun 04 July 2021:

Fifty percent of US citizens approve how President Joe Biden handles his job, a poll by ABC News and The Washington Post published on Sunday said.

According to the survey, 42% of the respondents disapproved of Biden as president and another 8% had no opinion.

In addition, Biden is overall approved in his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic (62%). Another 31% opposed his policies in this regard and 7% did not have an opinion on the issue.

In contrast, most of the respondents do not approve Biden’s policies on crime and handling of the immigration situation at the US-Mexico border – 48% and 51%, respectively. Only 33% said that they approved the president’s way to resolve the border issue in spite of the increasing number of migrants trying to cross into the US, while 38% are satisfied with how Biden handles the issue of crime.

The nationwide survey was conducted from June 27-30 via a phone interview of 907 people aged 18 and over with a margin of error at +/- 3.5%.

Six in 10 Americans say their community has recovered, with 16 percent saying their communities are fully recovered and 44 percent saying they are mostly so. Of the 36 percent who paint a gloomier picture, 22 percent say their community has partly recovered while 14 percent say theirs have a long way to go.

Black adults are less likely to say their community has recovered (46 percent) than White adults (63 percent); 58 percent of Hispanic adults say their community has recovered.

More than 600,000 people have died in the United States from covid-19, with nearly 34 million cases reported. In the Post-ABC poll, 3 in 4 Americans say they have not contracted covid-19. Another 11 percent report that they have tested positive, while 12 percent say they think they had covid-19 but never tested positive.
