President-elect Donald Trump's popularity has risen after only two weeks since the election, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll of registered voters.

From Politco: 

Forty-six percent of voters now have a very favorable or somewhat favorable opinion of the president-elect. Twelve percent have a somewhat unfavorable opinion and 34 percent have a very unfavorable opinion of him.

It’s a dramatic uptick since the election. Trump’s favorability has grown 9 points, 37 percent to 46 percent, compared to a Morning Consult poll right before the election -- while his unfavorability has dropped 15 points, from 61 percent to 46 percent.

As Trump goes into office this January, President Barack Obama looks to be leaving on high note, with an approval rating of 54 percent of voters and 48 percent disapproving, which seems rather odd considering how his 8-year tenure has left the Democrats in shambles. 

"Trump’s favorability among voters has reached new highs since he became president-elect," said Morning Consult cofounder and Chief Research Officer Kyle Dropp. "This honeymoon phase is common for new presidents. For example, Obama saw about a 20-point swing in his favor following the 2008 election."

The poll also showed that voters favor Trump's handling of the transition effort. 

"About half say Donald Trump's presidential transition is as organized or more organized than previous administrations, whereas about one in three describe it as less organized than past transitions,'"said Dropp, though he noted that "many of the initial transition picks including Reince Priebus, Steve Bannon and Jeff Sessions are still largely unknown to Americans."
