New poll suggests that President Joe Biden is in danger of losing the 2024 presidential election following dissatisfaction from the public.
According to the survey conducted by the Associated Press, only 21 percent of adults express confidence in Biden’s performance. Among them, 36 percent are Democrats, whereas only 7 percent are Republicans.
Meanwhile, only 24 percent of the population looks at the economy in a positive light, with a staggering 76 percent considering it in a state of decline.
“Biden’s handling of specific issues: Negative views on national economy, gun policy, and immigration; only a third approve. Slightly more positive on student loans,” the AP noted of the president’s performance.
“Partisan divide: Approval of the president and specific issues remains highly partisan. Older adults and college graduates more likely to approve of Biden’s handling of economy and gun policy compared to younger or less educated individuals,” the news outlet continued.
Similarly, left-leaning network NBC was forced to admit Biden’s abysmal approval ratings, with host Chuck Todd reluctantly reporting, “53% of 2020 Biden voters say he shouldn’t run. 64% of Democrats who voted for Sanders are warned in the 2020 primaries think he shouldn’t run. And 76% of voters under 35 think he shouldn’t run.”
“And what’s the top concern for that? We asked voters, we didn’t prompt them, we said, why don’t you think he should run? Well, these were the responses. It almost is all about his age and his ability to do the job. Again, these are among Democratic primary voters,” he added.
This comes after Biden formally announced his 2024 re-election campaign earlier this month. Vice President Kamala Harris will remain his running mate despite her low approval numbers.
“I said we are in a battle for the soul of America, and we still are,” the president said in his campaign video. “The question we are facing is whether in the years ahead we have more freedom or less freedom, more rights or fewer.”
Officials, however, continue to question Biden’s physical and mental wellbeing, especially after he admitted in an interview recently that his age is “a legitimate thing to be concerned about.”
Voters are also showing serious concerns for Biden’s age and health, as an October survey found that 64 percent of Americans, including 50 percent of Democrats, said they were “concerned” about the president’s mental health.
