Democrats have tried to argue that Joe Biden's yelling during the SOTU speech improved his image with voters. Here comes a Harris/Forbes poll done 3 days after the SOTU, with findings that point to his approval rating declining further. In bullet points, here are the main Harris findings.
- Approval of Biden's performance as President: Net approve: 37%, Net disapprove: 58%.
- If you voted today and the choices were Biden and Trump, for whom would you vote? Trump: 46%, Biden: 41%.
- Do you think ____ should run for president again? Biden: Run 36%, Not Run 64%; Trump: Run 46%, Not Run 54%.
Plus Yahoo News reports the results of a YouGov poll they commissioned after the speech which found this.
A new Yahoo News/YouGov survey of 1,482 U.S. adults, conducted in the days immediately following Biden’s big speech, shows zero improvement in perceptions of the president — or in his standing against former President Donald Trump.
Don’t you think virtually everyone who will vote in November already knows now for whom they will vote then? I know I do.
