Trump's job approval in the Beaverton area stands at 23.1%. In eastern Beaverton, it drops to just 19%.

Those figures come from a neighborhood-level polling analysis published Thursday, Sept. 3, by the Oregon Capital Chronicle, which mapped presidential approval across Oregon's 35 Census Public Use Microdata Areas, or PUMAs. Each PUMA represents roughly 100,000 adults.

Eastern Beaverton's 19% ranks among the lowest in the state, though several Portland PUMAs score lower still.

East-central Portland sits at 10.4%, north-central Portland at 10.9% and west Portland at 11.6%.

The data comes from the Strength in Numbers polling project, led by analyst G. Elliott Morris. The project pools more than 12,000 monthly interviews and adjusts them to Census population counts. The site's data was last updated Aug. 23.

Beaverton's 23.1% trails the statewide average of 32.8% and the national average of 38.2%.

Elsewhere in Washington County, the Hillsboro area shows 25.6% approval, the Tigard, Tualatin and Sherwood area shows 25.5%, and the Forest Grove and western Washington County area comes in at 27.5%. All four Washington County PUMAs fall well below the state average.

Only three of Oregon's 35 PUMAs top 50% approval. Those are the Klamath, Malheur, Lake and Harney four-county area at 55.6%; the Union, Baker, Wallowa and southeastern Umatilla counties region at 54.8%; and Douglas County at 53.3%.

Randy Stapilus, the longtime Northwest political writer who authored the analysis, wrote that the decline cuts across geography. "They do seem to represent, both in red and blue areas, across the board decline in support for the president," Stapilus wrote. He added that if the trend affects votes for other Republicans, it could reshape Oregon races this fall.

For context, Trump won 41% of Oregon's statewide vote in 2024, up from 40.4% in 2020 and 39.1% in 2016. Job approval, a different measure, now sits below those vote-share marks statewide and far below them in Beaverton.

Washington County's next general election falls on Nov. 3. Secretary of State Tobias Read directed county clerks to mail ballots to military and overseas voters by Sept. 19 and to all other voters beginning Oct. 14.
