According to a recent poll released by CBS and polling agency YouGov, nearly half of Democratic voters believe that President Biden should not seek re-election. This proportion has increased by 10 percentage points from February this year, indicating that Biden's support rate within the party has declined.
The survey results show that 46% of Democratic voters believe that Biden should not participate in the upcoming presidential election in November, while 54% of voters hold the opposite view. This change reflects the division within the Democratic Party on whether Biden is suitable to run for re-election.
The poll was conducted between June 28 and 29, with a total of 1,130 registered voters surveyed. During this period, Biden had his first televised debate with former President Trump, and some observers considered Biden's performance in the debate to be unstable, which may have affected the views of some voters.
Although Biden's performance in the debate was criticized, his achievements in other areas, such as economic recovery and response to the epidemic, are still recognized by many voters. Therefore, it is not clear whether this change in public opinion will have a substantial impact on Biden's election.
It is worth noting that the US presidential election has not officially begun, and the support rates of candidates may still change. The primary election process within the Democratic Party will continue, and new candidates may emerge, which may also affect voters' choices.
The poll results show the complex attitudes within the Democratic Party towards Biden's re-election, as well as the attention and expectations for future elections. As the election date approaches, more polls and analyses are expected to be released to provide us with a more comprehensive understanding. $SOL
