Fifty percent of Americans approve of Obama's job performance, which is the first time he has reached majority support since May 2013, according to the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll. This represents an increase in his approval rating of nine percentage points in the past month, while his disapproval rating has dropped by 10 points. Obama has gained 10 points among Democrats, 19 points among people younger than 30 and 22 points among Latinos.

The pollsters attribute these gains largely to improvements in the economy, including a gradual decline in the national unemployment rate and a boom on Wall Street. Forty-one percent of Americans rate the economy positively today, compared with 27 percent in October, 2013.
