A new poll has indicated that if Michelle Obama were to compete against Donald Trump in the presidential election of 2024, she would emerge victorious, but all of the other candidates who could potentially replace Joe Biden would be unsuccessful.
In a hypothetical rematch, the Reuters/Ipsos survey that was done following the debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump on June 27 revealed that Michelle Obama would defeat the former President of the United States by 11 percentage points.
Approximately fifty percent of those who are registered to vote indicated that they would cast their ballots for Michelle Obama if the election were to take place today. Of the 892 people who participated in the survey, only 39% stated they would vote for Donald Trump.
The results of the poll showed that Vice President Kamala Harris, Governor Gavin Newsom of California, Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, Governor Andy Beshear of Kentucky, and Governor J. B. Pritzker of Illinois were all unable to outperform Donald Trump in hypothetical matchups as well.
Compared to the results of the polling conducted in March, which indicated that Michelle Obama would not be able to defeat Donald Trump if she were to be the Democratic nominee, the current poll was a far cry from those results.
In a hypothetical matchup, 47% of respondents to a poll conducted by DailyMail.com and J.L. Partners said they would vote for Donald Trump, while 44% said they would prefer Michelle Obama. The poll was conducted among 1,000 people who are likely to vote.
Michelle Obama has stated on multiple occasions that she will never run for president, despite the fact that she is becoming increasingly popular as a possible replacement for Joe Biden.
After Joe Biden's weak performance in the debate versus Donald Trump the previous week, there has been an increase in calls within the Democratic Party to replace him.
As a result of the debate, a new poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College found that Donald Trump is currently better than Joe Biden in terms of the percentage of likely voters, which is 49% to 43%.
A prominent official in the Joe Biden campaign who wished to remain anonymous was quoted by TMZ as saying that they feel "it's only a matter of time" before the 81-year-old stands aside from his position.
"There's little hope the polls are going to improve," the official was quoted as saying by the outlet.
According to reports, the official of the campaign believes that Harris is the candidate who is most likely to supplant Joe Biden in the event that he withdraws from the race.
An unnamed source told Deadline that Joe Biden insisted during a conference call with staff members on Wednesday that he is not going to step down from his position. "Let me say this as clearly as I possibly can as simply and straightforward as I can: I am running. I'm not leaving. I'm in this race to the end and we're going to win,” Joe allegedly stated.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre also recently told reporters that Joe Biden "is staying in the race."
