A recent CBS News poll reveals growing concerns among voters about President Biden's cognitive health and his ability to serve as president. The poll, conducted after the first debate between Biden and former President Trump, shows that nearly three-quarters of the electorate, including many Democrats, do not think Biden should be running for president.

The poll found that voters widely believe that Trump presented his ideas more clearly, appeared more presidential, inspired more confidence, and explained his policies better than Biden. Despite the fact that voters overall think Trump was not as truthful, they still see him as better on economic issues and protecting democracy.

The poll also found that Biden has made no meaningful inroads on convincing voters that a second term would make them financially better off. Additionally, Biden has not cast himself as better than Trump at protecting democracy.

The debate has brought the presidential race front and center to the minds of registered voters. Now 59% of registered voters say they are thinking a lot about the presidential race, up from 48% just a few days ago. Interest has risen among Democrats and Republicans alike.


The poll's findings have led some Democratic officials to reportedly say that Biden should step aside as the nominee and give another Democrat a chance to run for president in 2024. This idea finds resonance with nearly half the nation's rank-and-file Democrats.

The poll's results are a blow to Biden's campaign and raise questions about his ability to win re-election. The poll also highlights the challenges facing the Democratic Party as it seeks to unify its base and win over independent voters.

The CBS News/YouGov survey was based on a national sample of 1,130 registered voters who were contacted between June 28-29, 2024. The sample was weighted by gender, age, race, and education, based on the U. S. Census American Community Survey and Current Population Survey, as well as past vote and partisan identification and weighted to account for differential response rates. The margin of error for the sample of registered voters is ±4.2 points.
