In Sao Paulo, on February 14, polling agency Datafolha reported a decline in Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's government approval rating from 35% in December to 24%.
Concurrently, disapproval of the government increased from 34% to 41%, while the percentage of individuals perceiving his administration as average grew from 29% to 32%.
These latest figures mark the lowest approval and disapproval ratings for the leftist leader throughout his three terms in office, as indicated by Datafolha.
Since commencing his current term in 2023, Lula has faced challenges in matching the high popularity he enjoyed in previous terms, with his approval ratings not exceeding 40%, according to Datafolha data.
The survey, conducted from February 10 to 11 among 2,007 voters, carries a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.
