The fall mirrors Biden\u2019s performance in his general approval rating, which has fallen steadily since early summer due largely to his handling of illegal immigration, the U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan and the resurgence of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>The poll was conducted among 2,109 18- to 29-year-olds from Oct. 26 to Nov. 8. The margin of error was 3.08 points.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s falling support among young Americans is particularly noteworthy due to how dominant Democrats typically are in the demographic. The IOP poll shows Biden dropped 10 points among young Democrats and 14 points among Independents. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/11\/29\/poll-biden-division-america-unity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: EXCLUSIVE POLL: Majority Of Americans Say Biden Is To Blame For Divided America)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7296988\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" readability=\"34\">\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-7296988\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>US Vice President Joe Biden holds back tears while talking about his friend, Senator Edward Kennedy.
