Support For President Biden Crumbles Among Key Voting Bloc

-

President Joe Biden is bleeding support across the board.

Recent show the Democrat president losing support from , a voting bloc that overwhelmingly supported Biden during the 2020 election. However, now it seems Gen Zers are looking elsewhere for a viable candidate to take on Trump in 2024.

According to Fox News, one recent poll of registered voters between the ages of 18 to 34 indicated the former president and current Republican frontrunner leads by four percentage points over Biden, adding to evidence that the incumbent's support among key groups that helped him reach the Oval Office could be in jeopardy.

“I think that is really out of touch with not only the younger generation, but basically everybody,” Alexandria Chung, a Gen Z voter, told Fox News on Monday.

“I think that, on the left, so many people feel disengaged from his and what he is advocating for, and I think we are all just looking to see a new face who will unite the country.”

Another Generation Z voter responded to the pressure campaign from Democrats to package Biden's ideas as young despite his age.

“If it does [work], it's because the Democrats control the ,” he said. “We ought to be focusing on the fact that this not about the age of the president, not about the age of the candidate. It's about the competence of the president. Is Joe Biden able to hold the office of president? Is his mind sharp enough? I don't think so.

“I think many Gen Z'ers are waking up to this because their greatest strength is their awareness. So I pray that all generations wake up to this, not just one or two,” he continued.

But it's not just young voters abandoning Biden, Black and Hispanic voters' support for the President continues to erode as well, a New York Times/Siena College poll this month indicated that Trump had gained unprecedented support from Black voters in key battleground states.
