Tough news for Joe…

According to a CNN poll released this week, Vice President Kamala Harris comes closer to defeating former President Trump than current President Joe Biden.

Harris is polling two percentage points behind the former president; Biden is six points behind.

From The Hill:

The poll was conducted after Biden’s shaky performance in last week’s debate, which has prompted concerns from within the Democrat Party over whether he is the best candidate they can put forward. Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas) on Tuesday became the first House Democrat to publicly call on Biden to remove himself from the ticket, while numerous editorial boards across the country have urged the same.

The debate has thrown Harris into the national spotlight as she navigates defending Biden and his ability to serve while some people have called on her to replace him. Former Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) said Tuesday that Harris should replace the president at the top of the ticket, adding that she will “destroy Trump in debate.”

Despite these worries and calls to drop out of the race, the Biden campaign and its surrogates have maintained that the president is still the best candidate to beat Trump. Biden’s team has tried to quell concerns about his debate, emphasizing that Biden will not be leaving the race.

The poll also found that 75 percent of registered voters polled said Democrats would have a better shot of winning the White House with someone else as their candidate. This includes 56 percent of Democrats and Democrat-leaning independent voters.

On Tuesday, Texas Rep. Lloyd Doggett became the first sitting House Democrat to call for Biden to step down.
