President Bush's Ratings Slip to Lowest Level of His Presidency, According to Latest Harris Poll

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - September 17, 2004 - President Bush's ratings have slipped to 45 percent positive and 54 percent negative, the lowest ratings of his presidency, according to a new Harris Poll. These numbers compare to 50 percent positive, 49 percent negative in June and 48 percent positive, 51 percent negative in August. This downward trend no doubt helps to explain why the lead which the president enjoyed over Senator Kerry immediately after the Republican convention in New York - the so-called "convention bounce" - has now disappeared.

This is one of the results of a Harris Poll of 1,018 U.S. adults surveyed by telephone by Harris Interactive® between September 9 and 13, 2004.

2. Why do we always hear so much more about Zogby, Gallup, Time,

Newsweek, etc. polls than we do about Harris? This is the first I've heard Harris results in a very long time!

Why should we believe Harris over the others? It really is easy (for me at least) to grab onto poll results that say what I want to hear.

5. Harris was very accurate in '92, '96 and '00

more so than Gallup etc. Harris and Zogby were very accurate over the past decade. Ask TruthIsAll, she knows everything about these polls.

3. Every day's headline is negative for Bush.

Believe it or not, actual dismal performance and incompetence makes a difference, sooner or later, in the polls.
