Tight Race in 2024 Election
A new NPR PBS NewsHour Maris poll shows that in a hypothetical 2024 matchup, President Biden and former President Trump are virtually tied with 49% of registered voters supporting Biden and 47% supporting Trump. Both candidates have strong bases of support, making the race highly competitive. It is as if we have two incumbents running against each other, with Trump maintaining a rock-solid base and Biden having less enthusiastic but still loyal supporters.
