WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - President Joe Biden has lost support in several US states necessary for him to be reelected in November and is polling for the first time behind Vice President Kamala Harris, the Puck reported, citing internal Democrat polling from Open Labs.
The report shows that states - New Hampshire, Virginia and New Mexico - are now leaning towards former President Donald Trump. In previous recent elections, those states were considered safe for Democrats. The Democratic win streaks in Virginia and New Mexico go back to 2004, while no Republican has won New Hampshire since 1988.
What is even more shocking, according to the news agency, is that Biden appeared in the polls even behind unpopular Vice President Kamala Harris in hypothetical one-on-one matchups with Trump.
Earlier on Tuesday, US Congressman Lloyd Doggett became the first Democrat to call on Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race following his poor performance in the first debate against Donald Trump.
