North Carolinians aren't particularly happy with any of their politicians though. Barack Obama's approval numbers have hit a new record low in the state, with only 40% of voters approving of him to 54% who disapprove.

Colorado and Ohio he is underwater in his approvals. He only won Colorado by 3% and Ohio by 1% so maybe not that surprising. He only won Colorado because Hispanics disliked Romney and he only won Ohio because of high black turnout in the age 45-64 age range(I think)especially black women.
What happened to him in Iowa and New Hampshire? He is underwater in those 2 states too in his approvals.
New York, CA, and NJ he is pretty low in his approvals for a blue state like those 3 states.. VA, GA, WI, MN, OR, MD, TX, AR, KY, LA and FL his approval are pretty much near his 2012 vote total % in those 10 states.
