WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Joe Biden faces a growing drumbeat of pressure to drop his reelection bid, a majority of Democrats think his vice president would make a good president herself.

A new poll from the AP-NORC Center found that about 6 in 10 Democrats believe Kamala Harris would do a good job in the top slot. About 2 in 10 Democrats don’t believe she would, and another 2 in 10 say they don’t know enough to say.

As for Americans more broadly, they are more skeptical of how Harris would perform in the Oval Office. Only about 3 in 10 U.S. adults overall say Harris would do well as president. About half say Harris would not do a good job in the role, and 2 in 10 say they don’t know enough to say.

The poll showed that about 4 in 10 U.S. adults have a favorable opinion of Harris, while about half have an unfavorable opinion.

Harris is more popular among Black Americans than she is among white or Hispanic adults. She is more disliked by men than she is by women.

The poll of 1,253 adults was conducted July 11-15, 2024, using a sample drawn from NORC’s probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 3.8 percentage points.

The news keeps getting better!

True believers.

Majority of Democrats think. Well there’s something you don’t hear every day.

We are 1/2 way to living in an idiocracy.

After President Biden, they have a very, very low bar. Vice-President Harris is by all accounts healthy and can walk, even if she can’t put two sentences together.

Some people are too stupid to be allowed to vote.

If she suddenly becomes the nominee, her emotional and intellectual limitations will result in a perpetual deer in the headlight look. Try to magine her in press conferences, at rallies and debating Trump.

Unfortunately, IQ poll tests are unconstitutional.

Climbing the career ladder with your heels up is quite a feat.

[TexasFreeper2009]

the majority of Democrats also think communist price controls work!

I don’t care much what the majority of morons think.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

I caution against any over confidence. There are 100+ days left. This is not over.

[brownsfan]

Democrats are stupid, and frequently evil as well.

[LuxAerterna]

My guess is that this is the same majority that think Joe Biden would still be a good President. After all, even with obvious senile dementia, he still polls within 5 points of Trump.

Doesn’t matter until Joe and Jill decide what to do.

As is often the case with Democrats, well.....

[Carl Vehse]

"a majority of Democrats think..."

An oxymoronic phrase.

[kosciusko51]

Dem voters are stupid, Dem leadership is evil.
