New Poll Shows One Democrat Beating Trump by a Lot
Welcome to Boston Post News, where we bring you the latest updates on politics, current affairs, and much more. In a recent poll conducted by Reuters/Ipsos, some interesting findings have surfaced regarding the upcoming presidential race. Let’s delve into the details.
The poll reveals that President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are currently tied in popularity among voters. However, the survey indicates that most other potential Democratic candidates fall behind Trump in the race.
Michelle Obama, the renowned author, attorney, and wife of former President Barack Obama, emerges as a strong contender with a significant lead over Trump. According to the poll, she holds a 50% to 39% advantage over the former president.
Interestingly, a considerable portion of voters, including one-third of Democrats, are voicing concerns over Biden’s age and cognitive health. Following his recent debate performance, where his responses appeared muddled, 56% of voters are calling for Biden to step down from the race.
In comparison, 46% of voters, including 19% of Republicans, believe that Trump should drop out of the presidential race. The poll indicates that Biden and Trump are currently tied at 40% each, with Vice President Kamala Harris trailing Trump by a close margin of one percentage point.
Trump also holds a lead over other potential Democratic candidates, such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker. Despite Trump’s advantage, these candidates suffer from lower name recognition in comparison to Michelle Obama.
Michelle Obama stands out in the poll not only for her favorable ratings but also for having the highest approval rating among the candidates. With 55% of voters viewing her favorably, Obama’s popularity surpasses that of her competitors.
Despite her strong position in the poll, Michelle Obama has repeatedly expressed her disinterest in pursuing a political career. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, she clarified that she has never harbored ambitions for political office and emphasized that serving her community is where her true passion lies.
While Obama remains firm in her stance against running for president, she has admitted to feeling apprehensive about the potential outcome of the upcoming election, particularly with Trump as a prominent candidate once again.
As the political landscape continues to evolve, the race for the presidency remains unpredictable. Stay tuned to Boston Post News for more updates on this developing story and other breaking news from around the world.
