WASHINGTON, (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden saw his approval rise to 45% this week, aided by better support within his Democratic Party. This was according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll that was completed Tuesday.

Two-day National Poll found 50% disapproval of Biden’s job performance, as America struggles with high levels of inflation. Russia’s invasion into Ukraine also raised geopolitical concerns.

Biden’s approval score has fallen below 50% since August. His presidency was also at its worst last month.

However, his recent rating has risen three percentage points from 42% to 42% in a Reuters/Ipsos survey conducted March 28-29.

Additional increases could be sustained to calm the increasing concern within the Democratic Party that it might lose its narrow congressional majorities during the Nov. 8 elections. That would mean Biden’s legislative agenda could collapse.

Biden’s approval rating in his party rose to 82%, up from 75% just a week ago. This is positive news for Democratic enthusiasm. Only 15% approve of the job he does in office.

Online polls are conducted by Reuters/Ipsos in English all over the United States. A total of 1,005 adult respondents were surveyed in the latest poll, which included 381 Republicans and 443 Democrats. It is four percentage point credible interval. This refers to precision.
