President Joe Biden has a new problem cropping up in polling data: more Americans now dismiss even the possibility of voting for him.
Among likely voters living in six key swing states, 51% say there’s “not really any chance” they’d vote for Biden, compared to just 46% saying the same thing about former President Donald Trump, according to a May poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College. The trend of more voters vowing never to vote for Biden than Trump extends beyond just one poll, with three polls stretching between November 2023 and April all finding more never-Biden voters than never-Trump voters, The Washington Post reported.
The American voter’s refusal to even consider voting for Biden is a reversal of the situation during the 2020 election. when voters consistently reported that they would never vote for Trump at higher rates than they did for Biden, according to the Post.
Both candidates have seen considerable protest votes despite running in virtually uncontested primaries.
Options other than Biden have gotten significant support in a number of Democratic primaries, including in the swing states of Nevada, Michigan and North Carolina. Similarly, Nikki Haley continues to attract double-digit support in Republican presidential primaries despite having dropped out of the race months ago, CNN reported.
With the election only four months out, polling paints a dire picture for the president’s reelection prospects.
Biden had an approval rating of just 38.7% as of May 17, making him less popular at this point in his presidency than every president since Harry Truman, according to FiveThirtyEight’s running average of polls. Trump has also repeatedly polled ahead of Biden in the key battleground states that are likely to decide the election.
The New York Times poll surveyed 4,097 registered voters across Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin with a margin of error of plus or minus 1.9 percentage points for likely voters.
The Biden campaign did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
I know a couple of dumb libs who said they can’t vote for Biden so they are just not voting this election
But they did vote for Biden, or stood by and watched the Dems steal the election.
Americans have become painfully stupid.
Libs not voting?
No problem.
Biden’s team will do the voting for them.
probably
.
A few the never Trumpers are changing their minds.
Forget the never voting for Biden stories we’re now hearing.
Whatever!
81,000,000 votes for Biden never happened in 2020. The man is illegitimate from top to bottom, only now are we beginning to adjudicate the facts of the 2020 election through these state court cases.
Thy name is fraud and treason!
Good for them.
I know I’ll NEVER vote for Xiden or any other demonrat for that matter!
who wants to vote for some idiot who smells little girls while taking a cut from illegal shakedowns and who is also responsible for the illegal alien invasion and the highest inflation since Carter!
Biden is a disaster.
Who needs votes when you control the counting?
Anyone who admits to having voted for the PedoPres cannot be trusted to not lie on anything.
Exactly.
During the last (s)election process, Biden actually said at one of his sparsely attended campaign events something like, “I”m not asking for your vote. I’m asking for your support after I’m elected.”
HUH?! Silly me was confused at the time because EVERY candidate asked voters for their vote.
Biden knew he didn’t need it.
He also slipped up saying he had the greatest fraud operation in history behind him. Yep.
I feel that way about pro-aborts.
If someone is in favor of murdering an innocent baby, nothing else they need to say to me. I know I”m dealing with a demon-possessed Hell hound.
They will vote for him.
Maybe not knowingly , but a vote will be cast under their name.
They probably don’t even know about the sniffing part - they watch NBC News and apparently like being lied to
It’s a real hoot to watch these folks have to eat humble pie
and admit they will vote for Trump.
Bill Barr was a hoot to watch trying to explain that one.
