A recent survey indicated that a majority of voters who supported Joe Biden in 2020 no longer want him on the ballot for 2024, saying they would prefer former First Lady Michelle Obama.
According to a Redfield and Wilton Strategies poll, “46 percent of eligible voters would support the attorney and wife of former President Barack Obama if she decided to run for the White House.”
The survey found that three-quarters of Biden voters support Michelle Obama.
The results come as Biden’s reelection prospects look more dismal in the light of growing concerns about his mental health.
Biden is trailing former President Donald Trump in most national polling, while his approval rating has tanked to a dismal 37 percent.
They found 45 percent of respondents supported Biden’s ending his reelection campaign, while Trump continues to gain support across the board, especially with minorities.
According to Just the News, recent surveys show Trump has either maintained or extended his lead over Biden in seven key battleground states.
“Trump leads Biden by 4% in Arizona, 1% in Michigan, 3% in Nevada and 3% in Wisconsin, according to four polls released Wednesday and Thursday by Emerson College Polling/The Hill,” the outlet noted, citing the surveys.
“Trump is also ahead of Biden by 3% in North Carolina and 4% in Georgia, according to polls released Wednesday by the Marist Institute for Public Opinion. Meanwhile, an Emerson College survey released last week shows Trump leads Biden by 4% in Pennsylvania,” the outlet continued.
As Conservative Brief reported:
Trump’s lead is within the margin of error in at least three states—Michigan, Wisconsin, and Nevada—and he’s within the 3.6 percent margin of error in the Marist poll in North Carolina.
Moreover, these figures do not encompass third-party candidates, so they are subject to change, particularly if Robert F. Kennedy manages to secure a spot on the ballot. At present, he has solely fulfilled petitioning endeavors to secure a ballot position in Nevada, Utah, Hawaii, and New Hampshire, according to information available on his website.
Biden’s campaign is obviously feeling the heat, as it has begun aggressively raising funds. Also, the campaign made a $30 million ad purchase in several battleground states earlier this month.
The Biden campaign is launching a six-week, $30 million ad blitz in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina, according to Politico.
The ad campaign seeks to highlight various Biden initiatives concerning “climate change” and abortion while also addressing concerns regarding the president’s mental acuity. The campaign mirrors a broader administration push to garner support among black Americans and young people, especially as the president trails behind Trump in the polls.
According to Politico, the ad campaign promotes five key Biden talking points, which include the COVID-19 recovery, reducing the cost of prescription drugs, the bipartisan infrastructure deal, efforts against “climate change,” and safeguarding abortion rights.
Political consultant Patrick Bonsignore of Blue Sky Strategy, who previously served as the director of Paid Media on the 2020 Biden campaign, is leading the first ad buy in what is anticipated to be a billion-dollar campaign.
The outlet noted that the ad negates to mention the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, choosing instead to focus on Trump’s alleged infringement on the “freedom of women to choose.”
