Poll: 54% of Biden's 2024 Support Driven by Trump Opposition

Jun 10, 2024, 01:49 PM

A recent CBS/YouGov poll reveals that a significant portion of President Joe Biden's supporters are driven primarily by opposition to former President Donald Trump rather than genuine support for Biden himself. According to the poll, 54% of Biden's likely voters back him mainly to oppose Trump, an increase from 47% in March. In contrast, only 27% of respondents indicated that they actually like Biden, down from 31%. This trend highlights a growing sentiment among Biden's base that their support is more about preventing a Trump presidency than endorsing Biden's policies or leadership in the 2024 election.
