A recent Gallup survey showed that 58 percent of registered Republican voters are likely to choose candidates who are anti-U.S. President Barack Obama.

The new survey constitutes 32 percent of the total number of voters surveyed against 20 percent who have expressed support for the incumbent president.

Obama's approval rating is down by a record high 40 percent weeks before the elections on November 4. Consequently, majority of the Democrats (53 percent) said they prefer not to send any kind of message with their vote.

The figures evidently mirror results from former president George W. Bush, who also endured declining approval ratings from Republicans in the midterm elections. Obama's 2014 midterm rating is almost synonymous to Bush in 2006, where the Democrats won majority of the seats in the House and Senate.

Gallup first asked the question of whether or not voters want to send a message of support or opposition in 1998, when former president Bill Clinton was deep in an affair controversy with a White House intern.

Experts say that Obama's declining approval rating presents more liability than asset to the Democratic Party. However, contrary to Bush's active campaign for the Republicans in 2002 midterm elections, Obama is not likely to do aggressive tactics to lessen Democrat risk.

Meanwhile, Hispanic approval rating is also down by 20 points in contrast to the President's rating in 2012 and 2013. Obama is still leading though with 52 percent of overall Hispanic adult voters against the 22 percent of the population leaning towards the Republican Party.

The Gallup poll is conducted between from September 25 to 30, 2014, with a sample size of 1,095 registered voters interviewed via telephone. All respondents are residents across the 50 states of United States and the District of Columbia.
