Explanation
This sentence uses a third conditional structure, which is used to talk about situations in the past that did not happen and their hypothetical consequences.The structure "If the President had not lost the vote" properly sets up a hypothetical scenario in the past, suggesting that if the event had gone differently, the outcome (the rating of his first year in office) would have also been different.
