Has Obama really kept 60% of his campaign promises? Not by our count.

During a fundraising event at a home in Los Angeles on Oct. 25, 2011, President Barack Obama took credit for enacting a majority of his agenda during his nearly three years in office.

“We’ve seen change,” he told donors. “We know what it looks like. We know what it takes. But we’ve got so much more work to do. And I keep a checklist in my desk, and I kind of see, all right, I made a bunch of these promises during the campaign — (laughter) — and let me see, yes, I got that done — (laughter) — and that one, yes. No, that one’s not done yet. (Laughter.) So we’ve got about 60 percent done in three years but — (applause) — so I’m pretty confident we can get the other 40 percent done in the next five years. (Applause.) But to do that, I’m going to need your help.”

A few readers wondered what we thought about this figure, since we’ve been using our Obameter to check how well Obama has been keeping 500-plus campaign promises since his inauguration. It is the most comprehensive look at what Obama promised during the campaign.

We checked our tally and found he was far short of that.
