At the end of Biden's first year in office, economic anxiety is higher than a year ago, and many feel the pandemic is not at all under control. His job rating in both these areas is down in recent months, and over half of voters disapprove of Biden's performance overall.
The President's job approval has been awful since October, and that is still the same: 47% approve and 52% disapprove.

Overall, 54% approved of Biden at his 100-day mark in April. The 7-point decline can be attributed almost solely to a drop among Democrats (from 95% in April to 85% today). Approval among Republicans and Independents has changed by only a point or two over the same period.

The percentage saying the pandemic is "not at all" under control jumped 13 points since last month, from 28 to 41%. Nearly three-quarters (72%) remain concerned about coronavirus.
