Wow, even the dumbest state in the union approves of our President!


Maybe but it is also possible (and probably more likely) than their poll is simply oversampling left leaning voters.

Not really, Ernst and Grassley both have net positives and even Trump has a +3 approval rating, so I'd say it's probably accurate with the balance. Since I was shocked to see Trump with a positive approval rating tbh.

I'm not sure how do you get these numbers but it is not what the poll is showing. According to this poll most Iowans have a unfavourable opinion of Trump and it is not even close (44 favourable vs 53 unfavourable), for a state that Trump won by a 53/45 margin such numbers are hard to believe. As for Ernst she is at -2 for the approval rate, hard to believe considering she was reelected by 7.

Then you have that : '' Among self-identified partisans, Biden’s approval and favorability ratings fall along party lines, pollster J. Ann Selzer noted: 94% of Democrats have favorable feelings, versus 8% of Republicans. His job approval rating is similarly partisan, with 91% of Democrats approving of his performance, compared to 9% of Republicans. Independent Iowans are more split on Biden's job performance, with 43% approving, 44% disapproving, and 13% not sure. The split continues in how favorable they feel toward him: 49% have favorable feelings, 47% have unfavorable feelings and 5% are not sure. ''

The IA electorate, per exit polls, was in 2020 38% independent / 36% R /26% D, if you do some maths Biden would have with a such electorate a -4 or a -5 approval rate, certainly not a +3 one.

Pew Research, April 5-11, 5109 adults (change from early March)

Approve 59 (+5)
Disapprove 39 (-3)

Maybe you should take a look at the partisan composition of their sample :

America loves Uncle Joe!

Obviously, an alternate America where democrats have a 2 to 1 advantage would love Uncle Joe.
