브레이크뉴스 정명훈 기자= 이재명 대통령의 국정수행 긍정평가가 53.0%로 집계되며 2주 연속 하락세를 보였다는 여론조사 결과가 22일 나왔다.
리얼미터가 에너지경제신문 의뢰로 지난 15∼19일 전국 18세 이상 유권자 2526명을 대상으로 조사한 결과, 이 대통령이 국정을 "잘한다"는 응답은 53.0%로 나타났다. 이는 전주보다 1.5%포인트(p) 하락한 수치로, 9월 첫째 주 56.0%를 기록한 이후 2주 연속 하락세다. "잘못한다"는 응답은 43.6%로, 전주 대비 2.5%p 증가했다.
이같은 결과에 리얼미터는 "코스피 3400선 돌파, 청년 일자리 4만개 창출, 국민성장펀드 출범 등 긍정적인 경제 및 민생 성과에도 불구하고 대법원장 사퇴 공감 발언, 삼권분립 침해 논란, 특검의 국민의힘 당사 압수수색 등 정치적 이슈가 지지율에 부정적으로 작용했다"고 분석했다.
지역별로는 부산·울산·경남에서 48.8%로 5.8%p 내렸고, 대전·세종·충청(2.9%p↓), 인천·경기(2.4%p↓), 대구·경북(1.8%p↓)에서도 하락했다. 연령대별로는 60대(49.6%, 5.1%p↓), 50대(64.5%, 3.2%p↓), 20대(36.6%, 3.2%p↓)에서 낙폭이 두드러졌다. 중도층 지지율은 53.3%로 전주보다 3.7%p 떨어졌으며, 진보층과 보수층에서도 각각 소폭 하락했다.
같은 기간 실시된 정당 지지도 조사(18~19일, 1007명 대상)에서는 더불어민주당 44.2%, 국민의힘 38.6%로 나타났다. 민주당은 전주 대비 0.1%p 내렸고, 국민의힘은 2.2%p 올랐다. 양당 격차는 지난주 8.4%p에서 5.6%p로 좁혀지며 5주 만에 오차범위(±3.1%p) 내에 진입했다.
연령별로는 국민의힘 지지율이 20대에서 50.1%로 9.0%p 급등했고, 30대에서도 2.0%p 상승했다. 진보층 내에서도 민주당 지지율은 68.6%로 7.2%p 하락한 반면, 국민의힘은 16.6%로 6.3%p 올랐다. 특히 학생층의 국민의힘 지지율은 61.1%로 전주 대비 26.7%p나 뛰어올랐다.
한편 조국혁신당은 1.9%, 개혁신당 4.1%, 진보당 1.5%로 조사됐으며, 무당층은 7.5%로 나타났다.

President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating stands at 53.0%, with Democratic Party at 44.2% and People Power Party at 38.6%.
President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating for his performance fell for the second consecutive week, reaching 53.0%, according to a poll released on the 22nd.
Realmeter, commissioned by the Energy Economy Newspaper, surveyed 2,526 eligible voters aged 18 and older nationwide from the 15th to the 19th. According to the survey, 53.0% of respondents said the president was doing a "good job." This represents a 1.5 percentage point drop from the previous week and marks the second consecutive week of decline since reaching 56.0% in the first week of September. Those who said he was "doing a bad job" rose 2.5 percentage points to 43.6%.
Realmeter analyzed, "Despite positive economic and livelihood achievements, such as the KOSPI breaking through the 3,400 mark, the creation of 40,000 youth jobs, and the launch of the National Growth Fund, political issues such as the Supreme Court Chief Justice's resignation, the controversy surrounding the violation of the separation of powers, and the special prosecutor's raid on the People Power Party headquarters negatively impacted approval ratings."
Regional declines were observed in Busan, Ulsan, and South Gyeongsang Province, down 5.8 percentage points to 48.8%, followed by declines in Daejeon, Sejong, and Chungcheong Province (down 2.9 percentage points), Incheon and Gyeonggi Province (down 2.4 percentage points), and Daegu and North Gyeongsang Province (down 1.8 percentage points). By age group, declines were most pronounced among those in their 60s (down 5.1 percentage points to 49.6%), those in their 50s (down 3.2 percentage points to 64.5%), and those in their 20s (down 3.2 percentage points to 36.6%). Support among moderates fell 3.7 percentage points from the previous week to 53.3%, and there were also slight declines among progressives and conservatives.
A political party approval rating survey conducted during the same period (1,007 respondents, May 18-19) showed the Democratic Party of Korea at 44.2% and the People Power Party at 38.6%. The Democratic Party fell 0.1 percentage points from the previous week, while the People Power Party rose 2.2 percentage points. The gap between the two parties narrowed from 8.4 percentage points last week to 5.6 percentage points, falling within the margin of error (±3.1 percentage points) for the first time in five weeks.
By age, the People Power Party's approval rating surged 9.0 percentage points to 50.1% among voters in their 20s and 2.0 percentage points among voters in their 30s. Among progressives, the Democratic Party's approval rating fell 7.2 percentage points to 68.6%, while the People Power Party's approval rating rose 6.3 percentage points to 16.6%. In particular, support for the People Power Party among students jumped 26.7 percentage points from the previous week to 61.1%.
Meanwhile, the Cho Kuk Innovation Party received 1.9%, the New Reform Party 4.1%, and the Progressive Party 1.5%. The number of unaffiliated voters was 7.5%.
This presidential approval rating survey was conducted using a 100% automated response system. The margin of error was ±1.9 percentage points at a 95% confidence level, and the response rate was 5.3%. The party approval rating survey used the same method, with a ±3.1 percentage point margin of error and a 4.4% response rate.
