The poll was conducted from September 15-18, 2023, and it surveyed 1,005 registered voters. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
The poll found that 52% of voters would vote for Trump in the 2024 presidential election, while 42% would vote for Biden. The remaining 6% of voters were undecided.
The poll also found that Trump is leading Biden among younger voters. Among voters aged 18-29, Trump leads Biden by 15 points (54%-39%). Among voters aged 30-49, Trump leads by 8 points (53%-45%).
The poll's findings are consistent with other recent polls that have shown Trump leading Biden in the 2024 presidential election. A poll by the Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll conducted in September 2023 found that Trump leads Biden by 6 points (49%-43%). A poll by the Trafalgar Group conducted in September 2023 found that Trump leads Biden by 8 points (49%-41%).
It is important to note that the 2024 presidential election is still over a year away, and a lot can change between now and then. However, the poll's findings are a sign that Biden faces a difficult re-election campaign.
What does this mean for the 2024 presidential election?
The poll's findings suggest that Trump is the frontrunner in the 2024 presidential election. However, it is important to note that the election is still over a year away, and a lot can change between now and then.
Biden has several challenges to overcome in order to win re-election. His approval ratings are low, and he faces a Republican Party that is united behind Trump. Biden will need to improve his approval ratings and energize the Democratic base if he wants to win re-election.
Trump also faces some challenges. He is under investigation for his role in the January 6th attack on the Capitol, and he is facing a number of lawsuits. However, Trump remains very popular within the Republican Party, and he is likely to win the GOP nomination for president in 2024.
The 2024 presidential election is likely to be a close race. The outcome of the election will depend on a number of factors, including Biden's approval ratings, the state of the economy, and the success of the Republican Party in mobilizing its base.
