A New York Times/Siena poll released Thursday, an overwhelming majority of registered voters in the United States believe President Biden made the correct decision stepping down from his re-election campaign.
A recent poll indicates voters in the United States almost universally approve of President Biden's decision to end his 2024 re-election campaign. According to a New York Times/Siena College Poll released Thursday, a staggering 87% of registered voters said they approved of the president's decision to forego a second term. Only 9% of respondents said they disapproved of the decision.
The New York Times reported that the 87% agreement statistic is among the highest levels of agreement on a Times/Siena polling question in years. The president gave a short Oval Office address on Wednesday in which he conveyed his decision to step down and endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris. 'In just a few months, the American people will choose the course of America’s future. I made my choice. I’ve made my views known,' Biden said from the White House.
He continued, 'Now the choice is up to you, the American people. When you make that choice, remember the words of Benjamin Franklin hanging on my wall here in the Oval Office, alongside the busts of Dr. King and Rosa Parks and Cesar Chavez.
Members of the president's family were in attendance for the speech, including first lady Jill Biden, daughter Ashley Biden, son Hunter Biden and others. Former President Donald Trump slammed the Oval Office address, calling it a 'terrible' speech while accusing Democrats of staging a coup against the president. 'I knew there was a palace coup going on, and I assumed that she'd be probably getting it,' Trump said of Harris. 'She had the advantage.
