how many want the withdrawal. The survey –

Joe Biden and Donald Trump are tied despite the Democrat’s disastrous debate, but 67% want the president to drop out of the race for the White House, according to an ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll of 2,431 respondents conducted online between July 5 and 9, with a margin of error of 2%. According to the research, two-thirds of Americans – including a majority of Joe Biden supporters – say the president should step aside following his performance in the debate two weeks ago. This despite Biden remaining essentially tied with Trump, a sign that there has apparently been no significant change in post-debate voting intentions.

If the election were held today, Americans are split 46%-47% between Biden and Trump, nearly identical to the 44%-46% result in the ABC/Ipsos poll in April. Among registered voters, there is an overall tie, 46%-46%, while if Vice President Kamala Harris were to replace Biden as the Democratic nominee, she would lead Trump by three percentage points, 49%-46%. That doesn’t mean Biden hasn’t been hurt by the debate. A total of 67% say he should drop out of the race.

Additionally, 85% believe he is too old for a second term, a new high, up from 81% in April and 68% just over a year ago. The poll also puts Trump ahead of Biden by 30 percentage points, 44%-14%, because he is seen as having the mental ability to serve effectively as president. Trump’s lead is just as wide when it comes to physical health. Biden’s job approval rating is steady, albeit at a weak 36%. Although neither is popular, Biden continues to have a better personal favorability rating than Trump. He leads the tycoon by 17 points.
