(77WABC) — A new poll says more than half of Democratic voters think President Joe Biden should not seek re-election in 2024, saying they want a change in the party.
The same poll says four out of five Republicans believe former President Donald Trump would win if he ran.
According to a USA Today/Ipsos poll, Democrats give Biden high marks on his government experience (92%), his policy knowledge and experience (86%), and his efforts to unify the country (85%), but when it comes to him mounting another campaign in 2024, 56% say he should bow out. Just 44 percent say Biden should run again.
Women (55%) and people between the ages of 18 and 34 (53%) are less likely than men (67%) and people 55 and older (65%) to believe Biden can win in 2024.
In contrast, 59% of Republicans say Trump should be the GOP nominee and deserves to be elected, while 41% disagree, opting to see someone else leading the party and nation.
