This is Biden’s highest approval rate for economic management in more than two years. The improving economy appears to be a key factor in Biden’s rising poll numbers.
Biden’s New Immigration Policy
Biden’s recent executive order on immigration has positively impacted his approval ratings. The order allows for the quick removal of migrants who illegally enter the U.S. without processing their asylum requests when the system is overwhelmed.

This policy has increased Biden’s approval rating on immigration to 35%, up from 30% in May.
Shifting Voter Perceptions
The improvement in the economy is resonating with key voter demographics. Robert Harding, a political science professor at Valdosta State University, notes that the economic gains are particularly benefiting Biden’s base of educated urban and suburban voters.

Many voters with investments and 401(k) retirement accounts are seeing significant gains, leading to increased financial security and support for Biden. This economic success is crucial for Biden as he heads into the election.

In the latest Fox News survey, Trump leads Biden on the economy by only five points, down from a 13-point lead in May. This narrowing gap indicates that voters might be beginning to trust Biden’s economic policies more.
Immigration Advantage Narrows
Trump’s lead on immigration has also decreased. He now leads Biden by nine points, compared to a 15-point lead in May.
This reduction in Trump’s advantage suggests that Biden’s tougher stance on immigration is resonating with voters.
Impact of Trump’s Legal Troubles
The latest Fox News poll is the first conducted since Trump’s conviction on 34 felony charges of falsifying business records.

This historic conviction may be influencing voter perceptions, contributing to Biden’s recent polling success.
