Gallup will stop publishing approval ratings of individual political figures, including the U.S. president, ending a practice the analytic firm has maintained for nearly 90 years.

A Gallup spokesperson told The Epoch Times on Feb. 11 that the change took effect at the beginning of this year, saying that tracking approval and favorability for specific politicians “no longer represents an area in which Gallup can contribute in the most unique way.”
