The CNN poll also asked voters about potential replacements for Biden. Harris fared the best, trailing Trump by only two points, 47 percent to 45 percent, within the margin of error.

Several other prominent Democrats outperformed Biden in polling, including Govs. Gavin Newsom (Calif.) and Gretchen Whitmer (Mich.), as well as Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

The Biden campaign has quickly shut down any notion that the president would leave the 2024 race.

For popular presidents sure. Biden is a lot closer to Trump ans Bush Sr. Than the others that won recently though.
