Voter Dissatisfaction With Direction of Nation At All Time Low
Posted Oct 08, 2008 at 5:09 PM by Maurice Berger
Gallup reports this afternoon that "only 9% of Americans are satisfied with the way things are going in the United States -- the lowest such reading in Gallup Poll history. The previous low point for Gallup's measure of satisfaction had been 12%, recorded back in 1979, in the midst of rising prices and gas shortages when Jimmy Carter was president. Gallup has recorded a 14% satisfaction level at several points -- once in the senior Bush's administration in 1992, and several times earlier this year."
