According to a recent poll from the Siena College Research Institute, President Joe Biden may be in trouble in the Empire State as his favorability percentage hits new lows.
From The Daily Caller:
Biden’s favorability-unfavorability rating in New York fell to 45-52%, a drop from 50-45% in September, according to a Tuesday poll from Siena College Research Institute. A majority of Democrats, 52%, want a different presidential candidate in 2024 compared to 54% who said they wanted Biden to be the nominee for the upcoming presidential election in September.
“While 70% of Democrats view Biden favorably, and 70% of Democrats approve of the job he’s doing, 52% of Democrats say they want a different presidential nominee in 2024,” Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg said in a press release. “And in the general, Biden only leads Trump 46-37%, a far cry from the 61-38% margin Biden won by in 2020. Biden’s lead slips to just seven points if RFK and West – who, combined, win the support of nearly one in five voters – are on the ballot.”
In the same poll, 64% of voters and 48% of Democrats disapprove of how the Biden administration is handling the migrant crisis within the state. A majority of voters, 59%, say crime in New York state has gotten worse. About 84% of New York voters say the state’s migrant crisis is serious and 57% say it is very serious.
Biden’s age, in addition to multiple crises both home and abroad, could be fueling his dip in unfavorability.
Even in deep blue states Biden is tanking in the pollshttps://t.co/cnJnGeEnC4
