79 percent of Democrats approve of Harris replacing Biden if he steps aside: poll [View all] TheProle Jul 2024 OP

I was polled on this question BlueInPhilly Jul 2024 #1

The voters don't matter anymore. The big question is Bettie Jul 2024 #2

Obviously. Putting someone else at the top of the ticket would be a disaster. Ocelot II Jul 2024 #3

Its a loser move BigMin28 Jul 2024 #14

The hill? Really. I live in Ohio and used to live in Pa...also Wisconsin... I fear she won't take the rustbelt. Demsrule86 Jul 2024 #4

Thanks for your concern TheProle Jul 2024 #7

She's the logical choice... Dennis Donovan Jul 2024 #5

And eliminate the voters? Deek1935 Jul 2024 #8

I still support President Biden' run, but in lieu of him continuing, I think VP Harris is a fine choice n/t Dennis Donovan Jul 2024 #12

And many do not think she is the best choice. You are advocating eliminating the voters. It's dictatorial. Deek1935 Jul 2024 #21

Many do think she's the logical choice. Ever see her debate? Dennis Donovan Jul 2024 #29

As if a presidential election was EVER decided by a debate. Jesus Christ! This is all sheer fucking INSANITY. Deek1935 Jul 2024 #43

If it weren't Harris the Democratic Party would splinter into pieces underpants Jul 2024 #13

Democratic Party will splinter into pieces with any replacement, period krawhitham Jul 2024 #17

And on the other side of the coin, much as we all love Kamala, many would say she can not win the GENERAL election. Deek1935 Jul 2024 #23

This is why Biden needs to stay no matter what. I'm convinced Harris would be a disaster on top of the ticket. tritsofme Jul 2024 #6

She would only be a disaster because of how she got there. Freethinker65 Jul 2024 #22

She would have to win the general election, and with the incumbent we lose the incumbency and party unity keys. Deek1935 Jul 2024 #26

I don't think she is capable of winning the nomination on her own, let alone the general election. tritsofme Jul 2024 #27

can't wait for him to be nominated bigtree Jul 2024 #9

If Joe were to withdraw he should announce tonight around 9 EST and endorse Kamala OrlandoDem2 Jul 2024 #10

But note that they are extremely divided on whether they think Harris has a better chance of winning. This is NONSENSE! Deek1935 Jul 2024 #11

On the upside polls aren't predictive this far out BannonsLiver Jul 2024 #16

So it could change for Joe too? krawhitham Jul 2024 #20

Of course BannonsLiver Jul 2024 #34

recent polling (July 17th) has Harris polling 1-3 points worse than Joe krawhitham Jul 2024 #15

So no need to replace Biden. Freethinker65 Jul 2024 #18

THANK YOU!!!! GoCubsGo Jul 2024 #25

My gut feeling is Biden will be forced to doc03 Jul 2024 #19

Why is this even a poll? EarlG Jul 2024 #28

My Question, As Well ProfessorGAC Jul 2024 #38

And all they have to do is vote for Biden, who is currently doing the job well. If he dies or becomes incapacitated ms liberty Jul 2024 #30

She is already on the ticket. pandr32 Jul 2024 #31

Vice President Harris is very popular within the Democratic Party, but not outside of it. And that's the problem. markpkessinger Jul 2024 #41
