Recent polls show increasing pressure on President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, with health concerns and public opinion fueling the debate. Learn more about the growing concerns within the Democratic Party.


Growing Concerns Over Biden's Candidacy

A recent poll has revealed that one in three Democratic voters believes President Joe Biden should withdraw from the upcoming presidential elections. This sentiment is shared by some prominent figures within the Democratic Party. Lloyd Doggett, a Democratic parliamentarian from Texas, publicly called for Biden to make the 'difficult and painful decision' to withdraw, emphasizing the need to avoid handing over the presidency to Donald Trump in 2024.

Health Concerns and Public Perception

Former Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has also raised questions about Biden's health condition following a debate with Trump. Pelosi remarked that it is 'legitimate' to question whether Biden's performance was a one-time issue or indicative of a more permanent condition. In response, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre stated that there is no need for Biden to undergo a cognitive test and reassured that the administration is transparent about his health.

Polls and Public Opinion

Polls indicate a growing concern among voters. A CNN poll showed that 75% of respondents believe the Democratic Party would have better chances in the elections with a candidate other than Biden. Another poll by Reuters/Ipsos revealed that one in three Democratic voters thinks Biden should withdraw. Despite these concerns, no senior Democratic figures outperformed Biden in hypothetical matchups against Trump. Additionally, both Biden and Trump retain the support of 40% of registered voters, showing that Biden's popularity has not significantly declined post-debate.

  • Joe Biden's recent debate performance has led to widespread speculation about his ability to continue running for president. During the debate, Biden experienced what many described as a 'frozen moment,' which has fueled doubts about his physical and cognitive fitness.
  • Interestingly, Donald Trump also had a lapse during a telephone interview with Corey Lewandowski, where he fell silent for several seconds. This incident, however, did not receive as much media attention as Biden's debate performance.
  • The health and cognitive abilities of both candidates have become focal points in the media. While Biden's health is under intense scrutiny, Trump's own lapses have not gone unnoticed. This ongoing focus on the candidates' health is causing concern among Democratic supporters about the potential for an election debacle.
