There’s a whiff of “LBJ vs. McCarthy” to this poll, in the sense that badly underperforming in New Hampshire is a strong hint to a failed president that he’s better off not seeking reelection.
Granted, the 2020 New Hampshire primary was Biden’s single worst showing of the election and that didn’t stop him from winning the presidency. He landed in fifth place in that race with just 8.4 percent, taking roughly a third as many votes as winner Bernie Sanders and second-place Buttigieg. Granite State Democrats don’t like Sleepy Joe for whatever reason, although they did like him enough to turn out for him on Election Day 2020 against Trump.
And of course, New Hampshire is a very white state, unrepresentative of the national Democratic electorate. Buttigieg did brisk business there and in Iowa, another heavily white state, in 2020 and then fell off a cliff once the primaries moved south. Biden underperforming up north doesn’t mean he’s vulnerable in a national primary.
Still, comparing candidate Joe Biden in 2020 to President Joe Biden in 2024 is apples and oranges as a successful president would be leading this survey by a prohibitive margin. The fact that Biden can’t do better than 16 percent against his own transportation secretary is another warning to the White House that the party is ready for change.

Biden behind Buttplug - his favorite position.
Pretty bad when Alfred E. Newman is beating you
Buttplug is going nowhere—except maybe back to his closet when this debacle of an administration is over.
Consequence of the B&B industry maybe?
I really don’t want to think about Buttigieg gdoing “brisk business” in New Hampshire and Iowa,as the article states.
Infiltrated state by the Reds, gays, and even some sane Democrats decades ago. It paid off and my old friend/editor of the Manchester Union Leader, Bill Loeb and lovely wife Nackey, are still spinning in their graves
Vermont was the first New England state to be taken over by MARXIST infiltration in the late 60/early 70s, esp. In Burlington (read Chicago and SDSers).
Primed nutcase commie Bernie Sanders to be their leader and it worked.
Lessons learned, I hope.
