How this rating is calculated

Every approval rating on USApprate is community-driven. Visitors vote "Support" or "Oppose," and we turn those votes into a single percentage using a simple, transparent formula:

Approval Rate = (Support Votes ÷ Total Votes) × 100%

To keep results fair, each visitor is limited to one vote per official or party through privacy-preserving browser fingerprinting, and you can change your vote at any time without creating an account.

How to read this rating

These numbers capture grassroots sentiment from people who visit USApprate — they are not scientific polls and are not a statistically representative sample of all Americans. Think of them as a real-time pulse of engaged citizens that complements professional polling. For survey-grade data, we recommend established organizations such as Gallup, Pew Research Center, and our full methodology.
