Majority of Biden voters say they want to replace both candidates on November ballot: Poll

More than 60% of respondents that support President Joe Biden revealed that they would switch out both Biden and former President Donald Trump on the November ballot if they could, according to a Pew Research poll released Wednesday.

Biden has received a lot of criticism from young voters who oppose his pro-Israel rhetoric, and has faced multiple "protest votes" in the Democratic primaries in states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona. Trump has struggled to find support from Republicans who prefer former United States ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, per ABC News. Both candidates have secured their party's nomination however, by winning enough delegates.

The survey of 8,709 adults found that more of Biden's supporters (62%) said they would replace both candidates if they could, compared to just 35% of Trump's supporters. On the other side, 27% of Trump supporters said they would keep both candidates the same, versus 4% of Biden supporters.

About one third of the respondents said they would keep their candidate the same, but replace the other. 

In both parties, younger voters were more likely to replace the candidates, with 73% of Biden supporters aged 18-49 saying they would replace them, and 38% of Trump supporters in the same range would do the same. 

Trump is also viewed as the stronger candidate and more capable of leading the country via mental and physical fitness. When it comes to Biden's mental acuity, only 21% of respondents said they were extremely or very confident in his ability to lead the country, and 15% said the same about his physical fitness. For Trump, 36% are extremely or very confident in his physical ability to lead the country, and 38% are extremely or very confident in his mental fitness.

The poll was conducted from April 8-14, and has a margin of error of +/- 1.5%.
