2 out of 3 Americans believe Biden’s reelection would harm America.
Is Biden’s Re-Election Bid in Trouble?
A recent CNN poll reveals that most Americans, including some Democratic voters, are pessimistic about President Joe Biden’s chances of serving a second term.
According to the poll, 66% of Americans believe that Biden winning in 2024 would be a “setback” or “disaster” for the country. Even among white Democrats without a college degree, historically an important part of the Democratic coalition, one in six said they “definitely” would not support the president’s re-election bid. Currently, only 60% of Democrats and left-leaning independents have indicated that they will support Biden in a primary.
Biden’s two biggest primary challengers are Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson. The former has claimed that vaccines cause autism, while the latter says she practices “spiritual psychotherapy.”
May has been a tough month for the president in terms of polling. A recent Fox poll found that Americans are more likely to blame Biden if the United States defaults on its debt than congressional Republicans. This is a reversal of fortunes compared to former president Barack Obama, who faced a similar debt crisis while in office and held a polling advantage over Republicans.
As of Friday, only 41.8% of Americans approve of President Biden, with 54.2% disapproving, according to an aggregation of polling data compiled by FiveThirtyEight. Biden’s approval rating has not exceeded 44% since August 2021.
Biden’s poor polling seems to be reflected in his presidential prospects. Most polls conducted this month show the president losing the popular vote to Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R., Fla.).
What Does This Mean for Biden’s Future?
- The CNN poll suggests that Biden’s re-election bid is in trouble, with many Americans and even some Democratic voters expressing pessimism about his chances.
- Biden’s approval rating has been consistently low, and recent polls show him losing the popular vote to potential Republican challengers.
- While it’s still early, these numbers suggest that Biden may face an uphill battle if he decides to run for re-election in 2024.
