Washington : Most Democrats don’t want President Joe Biden to run again in 2024 but appear eager for someone other than him to be the nominee as his new approval ratings hit another new low among liberals.
Vice President Kamala Harris appears to be the top contender against Governor Gavin Newsom of California as she is Biden’s trusted loyal and rides high on abortion rights and black voters besides being connected to the wealthiest families in New York.
Harris’ fund raising capacity against other candidates is way ahead of others though some of them can match up to her if not exceed her, political analysts say. John Paul Getty’s family (net worth $6 billion – Abigail, Mark and Ivy) and Apple founder Steve Jobs’ wife Laureen Powell Jobs (net worth $7 billion) have funded her throughout her campaigns from California’s AG to the presidential primaries in 2019.
Her toughest rival is Newsom who projects a much stronger image than her to stave off the Republicans if they were to choose either former President Donald Trump or Florida Governor Ron De Santis as their candidate. Newsom can fight better and take the battle into the Republicans camp while Hariss musters huge support from Black, Asian and Latino voters.
Democrats appear eager for someone other than Biden to be the party’s 2024 presidential nominee, a poll from ABC News and the Washington Post said. The poll found 56 percent of Democratic-registered voters and Democratic-leaning voters want another candidate to top the ticket.
It found only 35 percent prefer Biden as the Democratic Party’s 2024 nominee. The President hit new lows in approval among liberals (68 percent), southerners (33 percent), and people in the middle- to upper-middle income range (34 percent). Biden also hit a record low on approval from black adults at 31 percent. Already there are predictions from various Gallup polls that the Democrats could succeed in holding onto only one of the Congress’s houses, the Senate or the house. House seems to be the one that they can hold onto.
