Barack ObamaBarack Obama remains popular with Minnesotans, according to new SurveyUSA poll results. Sixty-two percent of Minnesotans approve of the president, while 32 percent disapprove. Six percent are on the fence.

That 62 percent remains steady from January, which is a bit of an anomaly. From Smart Politics: “In Minnesota, however, approval of Obama’s performance fell by only 2 points during the past month – from 64 to 62 percent – the smallest drop for Obama in any of the 14 states polled by SurveyUSA.”

Obama had the support of Democrats (89 percent) and Independents (57 percent), while Republicans overwhelmingly opposed him with only 28 percent approval. The Twin Cities area showed the least support at 57 percent, with southern Minnesota showing overwhelming support at 75 percent. Western Minnesota and the northeast part of the state gave him 63 percent and 67 percent respectively.
