6 in 10 say they would back someone other than Biden in 2024: Fox News poll

Six in 10 voters said in a new Fox News survey that they would back someone other than President Biden if the 2024 election were held today.

The poll found that 60 percent of U.S. voters said they would back someone other than Biden, with only 36 percent saying they would vote for the current president.

Just more than one-fifth of voters — 21 percent — said they would “definitely” vote to reelect Biden, while 44 percent say they would “definitely” back someone else.

By comparison, the percentage of voters who said they would back someone other than former President Trump never rose above the 56 percent recorded in January 2018. The 54 percent who said they would vote for someone other than former President Obama in September 2010 was also the highest percentage registered during his time in the Oval Office.

The Fox News survey released Sunday also inquired about Biden’s current job performance, which has been plummeting in recent weeks. The Fox poll found that 52 percent of voters said they disapprove of the job Biden is doing as president, with 47 saying they approve. 

The network noted that a record 52 percent now disapprove of his handling of the pandemic, adding that 34 percent disapproved early last year. 

The poll was conducted on 1,001 registered voters between Jan. 16-19 and has a margin of sampling error of 3 percentage points.
