Biden Plummets in Leaked Democratic Polling Memo, Puck Says
- Memo comes with president facing calls to step aside from race
- Some Democrats now perform better against Trump than Biden
President Joe Biden’s favorability numbers plummeted after his debate performance last week in “the largest single-week drop” in nearly three years, according to a leaked memo from a pollster that was published Tuesday by the news site Puck.
“Underpinning the decline is an increase in already-high concerns about the President’s age, and a growing split among Democrats about what should happen with his candidacy,” says the memo from Open Labs, the research arm of Future Forward, a leading Democratic super political action committee.
