Barely one in five voters believe President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign would benefit Democrats, according to a Tuesday Rasmussen Reports poll.
The poll asked respondents, “If President Joe Biden runs for re-election in 2024, would that be good or bad for the Democratic Party? Or would it not make much difference?”
Only 21 percent of voters said the Democrat Party would benefit, while 45 percent said Biden’s 2024 campaign would hurt Democrats. Thirty-one percent said it would not make a difference.
The poll sampled 1,000 voters from July 20-21 with a 3 point margin of error.

- CNN: “Biden’s age isn’t his problem”
- Washington Post: “Quit, Joe, Quit! Biden could save the midterms with a one-term pledge.”
