A recent Monmouth University poll found that nearly half the electorate foresees the possibility that Biden may be replaced as the Democratic nominee before November for health reasons.
In total, 48 percent of voters think Biden will be replaced as the Democratic nominee on the presidential ballot in November. While 32 percent of voters think Trump will be replaced on the ballot as the Republican nominee.
As per the poll findings, 51 percent of voters are at least somewhat confident that Trump has the mental and physical stamina necessary to carry out the job of a President, while only 32 percent of voters said the same about Biden.
The findings show a significant shift in attitudes from four years ago when 45 percent of voters expressed confidence in Trump’s stamina compared to 52 percent who said Biden was fit in all aspects for the job.
Nikki Haley recently suggested that Biden drop out of the 2024 race. She made the comments after a 345-page report released on February 8 by Robert Hur, a federal prosecutor who investigated Biden’s handling of classified information while out of office.
"You can't tell me that everybody in the Democrat Party is not trying to figure out what they do," Haley said on the trail on February 11.
Special counsel Hur’s report said, “Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen.” However, no criminal charges are warranted in the matter, the report concluded.
The report also highlighted Biden’s “significant” memory issues dating back to 2017 in recorded interviews with a ghostwriter, and it was no better when Hur’s office interviewed him in 2023.
Hur’s team of investigators said they believed Biden would “present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." Biden, however, denied he had memory issues on the night the report went public.
