Dilma Rousseff doesn’t have the majority popular support to keep her job as president of Brazil even though her approval rate has improved, according to a Datafolha poll.

Respondents who support lawmakers seeking to oust Rousseff totaled 60 percent, while 34 percent opposed impeachment, according to the Dec. 16-17 poll, which was published Saturday by the news website UOL. Rousseff’s approval rate rose to 12 percent from 10 percent in the previous poll last month.
