Biden’s approval rating is at 33%, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll

A new poll has revealed that a whopping 64% of Democratic voters don’t want Joe Biden to run again in 2024 as his overall approval rating has sagged to just 33%. 

The results of the New York Times/Siena College poll of 849 registered voters nationwide during July 5-7 also found that only 13% of Americans believe the country is heading on the right track. 

Of those who said they planned to vote in the 2024 Democratic primary and preferred a candidate other than Biden, 33% cited the president’s age as the most important reason, followed by his job performance at 32% and 12% simply just wanting someone new. 

Just 26% of Democrat voters said in the poll that the party should renominate Biden in 2024.
