Gallup Ends Longstanding Tradition of Tracking Presidential Approval Ratings

Gallup, a well-known American polling organization, announced on Wednesday, the 11th, that it will cease tracking presidential approval ratings, ending a tradition that has lasted for 88 years. According to Ming Pao, this decision follows a recent social media post by U.S. President Donald Trump, in which he criticized polling organizations, suggesting that 'false and misleading polls should be considered a criminal offense.'
