Just months away from the 2024 election, many Democrats are worried that President Joe Biden may not win re-election. Despite what they say in public, some Democratic leaders are expressing concerns about Biden’s chances. The recent polling results have increased fears within the Democratic Party that the 2024 election might slip away from President Biden and open the door for another Trump term in office. Some Democrats worry about the president’s age, the unpopularity of Vice President Kamala Harris, and other factors that could lead to a possible loss in the upcoming election.

Moreover, President Trump has been raising more money than Biden, and he has been campaigning in liberal territories. This has further heightened the anxiety among Democrats. The concern has grown as Trump’s fundraising outpaced Biden’s, and his recent campaign activities have caused unease among many Democratic strategists and donors who fear that Biden could lose the election.
Despite the worries, some Democrats believe that attacks on ‘abortion bans’ could change the course of the election. They also think that the Democrats’ turnout and ballot operations are more robust than the Republicans’, which could be decisive in the election. However, Biden’s efforts, including significant spending and swing-state ad campaigns, have had little effect on his approval ratings and standing against Trump in polls.
In addition, some Democrats are expressing on-the-record and anonymous anxieties about Biden’s current standing. They feel that the 2024 election might not go in their favor, and down-ballot Democrats cannot rely solely on Biden’s popularity to ensure their victories. Furthermore, recent polls in several states show low approval ratings for President Biden, adding to the apprehension among Democrats.
In conclusion, as the election draws near, some Democrats are growing increasingly worried about President Biden’s chances of winning re-election. Despite efforts to play to their advantages and the belief that attacks on ‘abortion bans’ could change the election’s course, concerns continue to mount within the Democratic Party. The article notes that this trajectory might continue if Trump is convicted in New York, although the Biden camp is pre-spinning a potential low-to-no-impact outcome.
