Trump leads Biden, 45% to 44%, when likely voters were asked whom they would support if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to The New York Times/Siena College poll.
That´s roughly in line with previous polling showing Trump leading Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in hypothetical match-ups.
Other polls have been more favorable for Biden, including a Yahoo News-YouGov poll last month that had Biden leading Trump by 6 points.
Last week, Biden told CNN´s jake Tapper that he “can beat Donald Trump again” and in the past he has said he would welcome a rematch with Trump, whom he defeated with a historic amount of votes in the 2020 election.
Biden and the White House have repeatedly said the president intends to seek reelection, but have stopped short of a definitive announcement. Trump has flirted with a 2024 run and stated his mind was made up but has not announced his candidacy.
The New York Times-Siena College poll also shows Biden’s approval ratings are underwater, even after the president had climbed higher in other polls.
In the new poll, just 39% approve of how Biden is handling his job, which comes as inflation remains at a 40-year high and accelerated in September.
Meanwhile, about 43% of likely voters currently have a favorable opinion of Trump, compared to 52% who have an unfavorable opinion.
The New York Times-Siena College poll was conducted from Oct. 9 to Oct. 12 among 792 registered voters. The margin of error is 4 percentage points.
