Washington, Aug 31: US President Barack Obama's approval ratings have fallen to their lowest level, Gallup''s tracking poll has revealed.

The August 22-28 weekly average of Gallup Daily tracking includes Obama''s worst three-day average approval rating so far in his presidency, with 38 percent approval and 55 percent disapproval from August
25-27, Politico reports.

Earlier this month, the Quinnipiac University poll had shown that Obama''s approval rating slipped to a record low, with 49 percent respondents disapproving of him and only 45 percent being in his favour in New York.
