President-elect Joe Biden’s favorability ratings are up since the election, while President Trump’s dipped slightly during the same period, according to new polling from Gallup.

The survey found Biden’s approval rating at 55 percent, his highest since last February, two months before he announced his candidacy. His rating is now 6 points higher than just before the election.

Trump’s approval rating, meanwhile, is at 42 percent, down 3 points from before the election.

Biden's rating is bolstered by independents and Republicans, according to the survey. Independents’ approval grew 7 points, from 48 percent to 55 percent, while Republicans' approval for the former vice president rose from 6 points to 12 percent. Democrats’ approval of Biden, which is in the 90s, remained largely unchanged, according to Gallup.
