Biden takes lead over Trump in new election poll as voters weigh if Biden will stay on the ticket
The poll shows Biden over Trump by 50% to 48% in a head-to-head contest, but Trump holds a one-point advantage, of 43% to 42% with third-party candidates factored in, NPR reported Friday.The survey of 1,309 adults was conducted Tuesday and Wednesday and carries a margin of error of 3.1 percentage points, putting Trump and Biden in a dead heat.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., has sent a letter to House Democrats Friday revealing that he met with President Biden privately last night.
The development comes as a growing number of House Democrats have been pushing for Biden to drop out of the presidential race, with one going so far as saying that Biden should resign immediately.
"Over the past several days, House Democrats have engaged in a thoughtful and extensive discussion about the future of our country, during a time when freedom, democracy and the economic well-being of everyday Americans are on the line. Our discourse has been candid, clear-eyed and comprehensive,” Jeffries said in the letter.
“On behalf of the House Democratic Caucus, I requested and was graciously granted a private meeting with President Joe Biden. That meeting occurred yesterday evening,” he continued. “In my conversation with President Biden, I directly expressed the full breadth of insight, heartfelt perspectives and conclusions about the path forward that the Caucus has shared in our recent time together.
“As House Democrats have done throughout this Congress, we will continue to work in the best interests of everyday Americans,” Jeffries added.
First term Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen has just joined the ranks of House Democrats calling for President Biden to abandon his re-election bid.
Pettersen issued a statement Friday saying that “I have deep admiration and love for Joe Biden and all he has done for our country, which is why this decision is so painful, but my son and my constituents can’t suffer the consequences of inaction at this critical moment.
“Joe Biden saved our country once, and I’m joining the growing number of people in my district and across the country to ask him to do it again,” she added. “Please pass the torch to one of our many capable Democratic leaders so we have the best chance to defeat Donald Trump, who is the greatest threat to the foundation of this country that we have ever seen.”
President Biden is facing fresh criticism as he heads to Detroit Friday for a campaign event.
“Today’s visit to Detroit doesn’t change the fact that Joe Biden has failed Michiganders at every opportunity," Michigan Republican Party Chairman Pete Hoekstra said in a statement. "His obsession with electric vehicles is guaranteed to cripple the community and put Michiganders out of work. Joe Biden has proven time and time again that he is wrong for Michigan.”
“Joe Biden will sleepwalk through his trip to Detroit. But Michiganders will not be dreaming when they see how the Biden-Harris economic policies have made it harder for families to put food on the table or afford to provide for their children," added Team Trump Michigan Communications Director Victoria LaCivita.
At Friday’s stop in Detroit, President Biden will discuss policy proposals he hopes to enact in the first 100 days of a second White House term, his campaign told The New York Times.
President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are defying critics calling for the president to step away from the 2024 presidential race by launching a full offensive aimed at tying former President Trump to the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 platform.
The effort comes amid Trump's attempt to distance himself from Project 2025, a highly scrutinized initiative that's been portrayed as a blueprint for a future Republican administration to restructure many parts of the U.S. government. Trump has described elements of the plan as "ridiculous" and "abysmal."
"Donald Trump’s Project 2025 team is stacked with the same extremists who helped him rip away women’s freedoms, round up and deport Latinos, and undermine our democracy in his first term," Biden campaign spokeswoman Sarafina Chitika told Fox News Digital.
"If Trump wins this election, his Project 2025 allies will work around the clock to make sure he can go even further to ban abortion nationwide, gut Social Security and Medicare, and rule as a ‘dictator on day one.’ Donald Trump and Project 2025 are one and the same — and voters are going to make sure they both lose this November."
