Over half of the Democratic electorate harbors doubts about Joe Biden's prospects in the forthcoming November showdown with Donald Trump.
A recent CNN poll reveals a striking 75% of respondents feel the Democrats would stand a better chance if they rallied behind an alternative candidate, with this sentiment echoed by more than half within the party itself.
The skepticism has been fueled by concerns over Biden's age, especially after his recent debate performance, while Republicans show increasing unity around Trump, with over 80% believing he offers them the best shot at victory. Biden's approval ratings have dipped to a new low of 36%, and a significant portion—over 40%—express strong disapproval of his tenure so far. In a speculative matchup between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the gap narrows significantly, with Trump leading at 47% to Harris's 45%.
This survey was executed by SSRS Opinion Panel from June 28-30, polling over 1,200 adults, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5%. Despite these challenges and speculations, President Biden remains defiant and committed to his campaign: "Let me be as clear as I can—I am staying in the race!
I'll beat Donald Trump," he asserted during a recent Wisconsin rally. "I beat him in 2020. And by the way, we're going to do it again in 2024."
