Democrats pulled a switcheroo with Joe Biden, knowing they were going to go down to defeat with him, after his disastrous debate made it impossible to hide his cognitive decline anymore. Democrats are trying to whip up excitement over Kamala Harris. But are they going to be in any better position with Harris? People were pointing to a Reuters poll that had Harris up by two percentage points. But that also had Democrats oversampled: pic.twitter.com/S4biNwHZ8B— Nickarama (@nickaramaOG) July 27, 2024Then if you look at the recent, Real Clear Politics national polls, Trump is still up 1.7 percent in the average:...

The post-convention polls are in, and they consistently show Hillary Clinton entering the next phase of the presidential election campaign with the upper hand over Donald Trump. The CNN Poll of Polls incorporating the results of six major polls -- all conducted after the party conventions concluded in late July -- finds Clinton with an average of 49% support to Trump's 39%. When third party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein are included, the margin remains the same, with both candidates losing the same amount of support to land at 45% for Clinton to 35% for Trump, with Johnson at...
 

Democrat Anointment Blues: Have The Polls Moved At All?

Has the Kamala Harris Anointment reset the presidential race? Has it even reset voter assessment of Harris? Pollsters have rushed into the gap to answer those questions, perhaps a bit too soon to avoid a predicted honeymoon effect of finally burying Joe Biden.Actually, scratch that. At least in the first-blush polls, nothing much has changed at all -- not in the Trump-Biden head-to-head, and not in the Trump-Harris H2H polling either. Yet, anyway.Yesterday, the big news came from a Reuters-Ipsos poll that showed Harris up by two points, albeit among registered voters. The numbers on that seemed a bit low...

Biden returns from Delaware on Tuesday after recovering from Covid at his house there. WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden will give a prime-time address from the White House on Wednesday to discuss his decision to exit the presidential race, according to a source familiar with the matter. Biden issued a letter on Sunday saying he would not accept the Democratic nomination and then endorsed his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris, to replace him atop the ticket. Biden was diagnosed days before with Covid, which delayed him giving remarks about the decision.

Former President Donald Trump leads Vice President Kamala Harris in 13 national polls published in the month of July. The surveys indicate Harris might not have any better chance of defeating Trump than President Joe Biden did. Harris’s favorability rating is one point less than Biden’s, RealClearPolitics polling average found. Harris will be an easier candidate to defeat in November than Biden, Trump said Sunday after Biden dropped out as the Democrat’s de facto nominee. The 13 polls also contradicts polling from former pollster for President Barack Obama, Fernand Amandi, who published an internal survey on July 9 that found...
 

Kamala Harris would lose at least two states Biden won in 2020 if election were held today: polls

New York Post ^ | 07/22/2024 | A.G. Gancarski and Steven Nelson
After a seismic shift atop the Democratic presidential ticket, the likely new nominee faces some of the same problems the current president does.While Kamala Harris is likely much less prone than Joe Biden to show cognitive issues by mixing up names and losing track of what she’s saying, she’s still got to find a way to make up ground against Donald Trump in the next 104 days.A HarrisX/Forbes poll released Monday (but conducted July 19 to 21, the day Biden left the campaign) has Trump in blowout territory, leading Harris 50% to 41% overall and 51% to 40% among likely...
 

15 Questions Biden Must Answer About His Exit From The 2024 Race: The American people deserve to hear directly from Biden

The Federalist ^ | 07/22/2024 | Shawn Fleetwood
Where is Joe Biden?It’s the question Americans are asking after it was announced Sunday via a letter posted by Biden’s X account that the president will not be seeking reelection this fall. While the communique noted that Biden will “speak to the Nation later this week in more detail” about the decision, Americans have not personally heard from their president about his abrupt exit from the 2024 race. A “week ahead guidance” released by the White House on Monday showed Biden had no public events scheduled for that day and noted that “[a]dditional details” about his schedule for the rest...
 

Polls on Kamala Harris Are Going to Make Dems Rip Their Hair Out After Subverting Democracy to Boot Biden

Red State ^ | 07/22/2024 | Nick Arama
The top Democrats have been flipping out since the debate, seeing their chances to win slipping away and finally being successful in pushing a very reluctant Joe Biden out of the 2024 race. They were losing in the polls with Biden, which is why they did it. It wasn't because they suddenly realized he was incoherent. It's all about holding onto control. They're all fearful of former President Donald Trump coming in, not because they really think he's a "threat to democracy" but because they fear he might actually start holding people accountable. So they threw Biden under the bus...
 

Trump’s age and health under renewed scrutiny after Biden’s exit

The Washington Post ^ | July 22, 2024 at 3:31 p.m. EDT | Michael Kranish
After weeks of intense focus on President Biden’s health and age that ended with his withdrawal from the campaign on Sunday, the script has flipped: Former president Donald Trump is now the oldest presidential candidate in history — and one who has been less transparent about his medical condition than his former opponent. Trump, a 78-year-old with a history of heart disease and obesity, according to experts, has not shared any updated bloodwork results or other specific information during this campaign to help experts assess his ongoing medical risks. Instead, he has released a vague, three-paragraph letter from his primary...

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre will appear on ABC’s “The View” on Tuesday, days after President Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race. The daytime table talk program will host Jean-Pierre for her first interview since Biden announced on Sunday his withdrawal and decision to back Vice President Harris as a potential replacement for the Democratic Party’s nominee. In the days leading to his exiting the race, Biden and his top White House aides faced intensifying questions about the president’s mental health and acuity following a shaky debate performance against former President Trump late last month....
 

Biden’s Exit Puts Trump Trade in Doubt as Election Gets Re-Set

Investors have been amassing wagers on Donald Trump’s return to the White House for weeks, trimming holdings of long-term US bonds and buying Bitcoin, among other things. Now, they’re considering whether Joe Biden’s exit from the race boosts the odds of a Democrat victory — and how much they must recalibrate their bets. Though the announcement was widely expected as the 81-year-old faced pressure from allies, it injects a wild card into the campaign that will likely translate into volatility for markets. “This means more uncertainty,” said Gene Munster, co-founder and managing partner at Deepwater Asset Management. “There was a...

Rehoboth Beach, Delaware CNN — In the end, President Joe Biden exited the political stage in isolation. After weeks of fighting for his political life – insisting he wasn’t going anywhere following a disastrous debate performance – the president’s about-face did not come in an Oval Office address or a speech on the campaign trail. Instead, it came in letter posted to social media as he recovered from Covid-19 at his beach house in Delaware. It was a low-key way to reveal one of the most historic decisions in modern American politics, but time was not on Biden’s side to...

What does President Joe Biden’s exit from the 2024 White House race look like? According to an NBC News report Friday, members of the octogenarian’s own family are working through scenarios dealing with that very question right now. The report cites two people familiar with the discussions. It sets out one proviso of the discussions is that Biden has to keep his reputation in tact through the exit while not giving former President Donald Trump any leeway to add to his growing political capital. The outlet continues: Biden’s family members have specifically discussed how he would want to end his...

Journalist and Newsmax commentator Mark Halperin said Thursday that multiple sources have told him embattled President Joe Biden plans to withdraw from the presidential election as early as this weekend, with Sunday most likely. "According to multiple Democratic sources, this is happening all of a sudden," Halperin told "Carl Higbie FRONTLINE" from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. "Everyone said it would happen gradually and then all at once. And that's what's happening. According to my sources, President Biden has agreed to step down as the Democratic nominee. It will happen as early as this weekend. "A speech has been...

Axios ^ | JULY 18, 2024 | Jim VandeHei , Mike Allen
Several top Democrats privately tell us the rising pressure of party congressional leaders and close friends will persuade President Biden to decide to drop out of the presidential race, as soon as this weekend. Why it matters: The 81-year-old president, now self-isolating with COVID, remains publicly dug in. But privately he's resigned to mounting pressure, bad polls, and untenable scrutiny making it impossible to continue his campaign, the Democrats tell us. Behind the scenes: The private message, distilled to its bluntest form: The top leaders of his party, his friends and key donors believe he can't win, can't change public...
 

Harris Outdoes Biden in 2 State Polls but Has Her Own Weaknesses

The New York Times | Yahoo ^ | July 15, 2024 | By Nate Cohn
Five years ago, Joe Biden was the “electability” candidate — the well-liked, moderate Democrat who promised to beat Donald Trump and had the poll numbers to back it up. The polls don’t back up Biden’s electability case anymore. In the latest New York Times/Siena College polls on Monday, he trails by 3 percentage points among likely voters in must-win Pennsylvania, while he leads by a mere 3 points in Virginia — a state he carried by 10 points four years ago. Not only does Biden trail Trump, but he also fares worse than Vice President Kamala Harris, the only other...

Wisconsin election law says only way to exit from ballot is death

Should President Joe Biden decide to exit the presidential race, Wisconsin law creates another impediment to Democrats replacing him.Death is the only allowable reason for a candidate to drop out.According to the state’s ballot access procedures, “Any person who files nomination papers and qualifies to appear on the ballot cannot withdraw their name from the ballot after filing. The name of that person shall appear upon the ballot except in case of death of the person.”The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, has identified states, such as Wisconsin, where Democrats could face legal challenges if they try to replace Biden.“We...

A fundraiser and organizer of wealthy Democrats is dishing on why Joe Biden won't drop out of the 2024 election. Dmitri Mehlhorn, who organizes wealthy Biden boosters like LinkedIn CEO Reid Hoffman, made noise last week when he said that either a 'dead' or 'comatose' Biden would be better than replacing him on the ticket with Kamala Harris. Mehlhorn said in an interview Monday that Biden is still determined to run and win in 2024, that the polls saying the president is losing are wrong and what motivates him to stay in the race.
