Trump’s Lead Over Biden Widens in CNN Poll
Trump’s Lead Over Biden Grows in Latest Poll
Former president Donald Trump’s lead over President Joe Biden has grown even larger, according to a CNN poll released Tuesday.
In a 2024 rematch between the candidates, 49 percent of registered voters would support Trump, while only 45 percent would support Biden, according to the poll. The 80-year-old Biden faces dismal approval ratings, along with voters’ sense that “things are going poorly in the United States” and widespread fears about his age, CNN reported.
The poll comes days after a New York Times/Siena College poll shocked the political world by showing Trump beating Biden in five of the six most important swing states. Trump’s leads over Biden in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania range from 4 to 10 points, while Biden is ahead in Wisconsin by only 2 points, the poll found.
Both polls found that Biden is losing ground among constituencies that contributed to his 2020 victory over Trump. The president’s support among young voters, independents, black voters, and Hispanic voters—all of whom supported him by double digits in 2020—has drastically diminished. Independents and voters under 35 are now backing Trump, black support for Biden has plummeted by 25 points, and Hispanic voters are about evenly split, the CNN poll found.
The Times/Siena College poll, meanwhile, found that Trump is receiving 22 percent support from black voters, an unprecedented amount for a Republican, and that Biden has an only 1-point lead among Hispanics.
Biden’s approval rating—39 percent—is the lowest for any president since Jimmy Carter, according to CNN, while 72 percent of Americans say things in the country are going badly. Sixty-six percent of registered voters told CNN that the economy is “extremely important” to their 2024 vote, an issue that will likely hurt Biden.
What factors, such as dissatisfaction with current administration policies and Trump’s ability to connect with his base, could be contributing to Trump’s lead over Biden in this poll
D Trump, who served one term as president from 2017 to 2021, has been hinting at a possible run for the presidency again in 2024. With speculation mounting, this poll provides some insight into how voters perceive the two candidates.
The results of this poll are surprising to many analysts who predicted a decline in Trump’s popularity following his defeat in the 2020 election. However, it appears that Trump’s base is still strong and enthusiastic, as evidenced by his lead over Biden in this poll.
It is worth noting that this poll may not be fully representative of the American electorate as a whole. Polls have their limitations, and factors such as sample size and demographic representation can influence the results. Nevertheless, it is evident that Trump continues to have a significant following among registered voters.
One possible explanation for Trump’s lead could be dissatisfaction with the current administration’s policies and actions. Biden’s presidency has faced multiple challenges, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, economic struggles, and concerns over immigration. These factors could be contributing to a decline in support for Biden and an increase in support for Trump.
Another factor that may be influencing the poll results is the strong loyalty and dedication of Trump’s supporters. Throughout his presidency, Trump cultivated a dedicated following that remains fiercely loyal. His ability to connect with his base and mobilize them could be playing a role in his lead over Biden.
Looking ahead, these poll results could have significant implications for the 2024 election. If Trump decides to run, he will enter the race with a sizable advantage over Biden, at least according to this poll. However, it is important to remember that the political landscape can change rapidly, and there is still a long way to go before the next presidential election.
It will be interesting to see how these poll results impact the political landscape and shape the strategies of both the Republican and Democratic parties. If Trump’s lead continues to grow or remains strong, it could influence the decisions and actions of potential candidates from both parties.
Ultimately, polls provide a snapshot of public opinion at a specific point in time. While they can be informative, they should be interpreted with caution. The true test will come in the form of the actual election, where voters will have the final say.
For now, this latest poll indicates that Trump’s lead over Biden has grown, generating discussions and speculation about the future of American politics. As the 2024 election approaches, it will be essential to closely monitor the dynamics and trends of public opinion to gain a more accurate understanding of the political landscape.
