President Biden performs best among several high-profile Democrats in hypothetical general election match-ups against former President Trump, according to a new poll. The Emerson College survey re…
Polling has shown Biden with an approval rating around 40 percent and most Americans wanting candidates other than him and Trump this November, but the Emerson survey found he was more competitive against the former president than a few other top Democrats.
Newsom and Whitmer have increasingly gained national attention as prominent Democrats, and pundits have included them as possible future presidential candidates.
In the aftermath of the release of special counsel Robert Hur’s report on Biden’s handling of classified documents, which said he appeared in an interview as an “elderly man with a poor memory,” the president has faced increased questions about his mental acuity to serve for another term.
But he has struggled to gain much traction in the race, and Biden has overwhelmingly won the primaries that have been held so far.
Pollsters for Emerson found a higher percentage of voters who said they were undecided in the match-ups with Newsom and Whitmer than with Biden or Harris.
Almost 60 percent of voters said Biden’s age and the multiple criminal indictments against Trump raise serious concerns about their willingness to vote for them.
The original article contains 407 words, the summary contains 186 words. Saved 54%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Ok, I’ve heard of Newsom and I know he’s a California Dem which is literally the last thing anyone in the country outside of California wants. I’ve never heard of Whitmer. Out of touch media propaganda pushing neolib candidates again. People want true progressives.
You could look on the bright side, Whitmer is significantly more to the left than Biden. I’d argue Newson is to the left too. I’m voting for Whitmer expecting Newson to be the nominee after Biden second term (if it would happen).
This is the best summary I could come up with:
