The question is “[a]”Anxiety has turned to palpable fear” among a dozen Democratic leaders and officials, who are worried that Biden could lose the election to former President Donald Trump, the report said.
The Hart Research/Public Opinion Strategies/NBC News poll found that nearly three-quarters of voters believe the country is “out of control” and “heading in the wrong direction” under Biden, the highest negative reading the pollsters have recorded of any president.
Numerous recent polls have shown Biden losing support from demographics that were key to his 2020 victory.
- NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist: A majority of independents believe Biden is a greater threat to democracy than Trump.
- ABC News/Ipsos: Support for Trump and Biden is neck and neck among suburban women.
- USA Today/Suffolk University: Trump among Hispanics Lead Biden won by 5 points (39-34 percent).
- The Wall Street JournalThirty percent of black men and 11 percent of black women plan to vote for Trump.
- The New York TimesTrump and Biden are roughly equal among 18-29 year olds.
Biden would likely accept the Democratic Party’s ascendancy at the Democratic National Convention in August. Previous reports have suggested Democrats could use a three-step political process to replace Biden at the convention, but that would require him to step down.
