A Civiqs rolling online poll of registered voters, covering 110,353 respondents between Jan. 20, 2025 and June 11, 2026, shows President Donald Trump’s approval slipping in every state as he celebrates his 80th birthday. Nationally, 36% of respondents approve of Trump’s performance while 59% disapprove, leaving him clearly underwater.
The state-by-state map still follows traditional partisan lines, but margins have narrowed. Wyoming remains his strongest state with a net approval of +25, down from +47 at the start of his term. Other red-leaning states such as North Dakota (+15), South Dakota (+14) and West Virginia (+13) also stay positive, though with reduced leads.
In contrast, several states that began the term with positive ratings have turned negative. Florida moved from +9 to –13, Ohio from +8 to –14, and Nevada from even to –20. Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia now show double-digit negative nets.
Demographic breakdowns reveal the lowest approval among adults 18-34 (21% approve, 72% disapprove), independents (28% approve, 64% disapprove) and women (30% approve, 65% disapprove). Post-graduates approve at 25% versus 71% disapproval, while non-college graduates are somewhat less negative.
"The ultimate poll was November 5, 2024," White House spokesperson Davis Ingle said, adding that the election result reflected a mandate from nearly 80 million voters and that Trump is delivering on a popular agenda.
The data suggest a political map that retains its broad partisan shape but with tighter margins, making many battleground states more competitive for the next election cycle.
