(Daily Mail) Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is siphoning off 9 percent of voters who cast a ballot for Democratic President Joe Biden in 2020, exclusive new polling from DailyMail.com found.
Overall, the March DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners national survey shows Biden trailing former President Donald Trump by four points – 39 percent to 43 percent – with Kennedy gobbling up 7 percent of the vote in the 2024 general election.
Among third-party candidates Kennedy has the most impact on the race, with Cornel West and Jill Stein receiving the support of 2 percent and 1 percent of the electorate, respectively.
And he currently hurts Biden more, with only 5 percent of Trump’s 2020 supporters flocking toward the prominent anti-vaxxer, allowing the presumptive Republican nominee to retain a lead over the current president.
Of his 2020 voters, Biden only retains 73 percent, the DailyMail.com survey found.
More of President Joe Biden’s 2020 voters have moved over to independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. than those who supported former President Donald Trump four years ago the March DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners national survey found
President Joe Biden is losing 9 percent of his 2020 voters to independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., new exclusive polling from DailyMail.com shows, as well as 3 percent to Cornel West and 1 percent to Jill Stein. Another 4 percent head to Trump
While 9 percent go to Kennedy, another 4 percent slide over to Trump.
West, a civil rights leader who backed progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders in the 2020 race, takes 3 percent away from the incumbent president, while Stein, of the Green Party, gets 1 percent.
The liberal Stein famously peeled away enough votes in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin in 2016 to flip those three traditionally Democratic states to Trump during that election cycle over Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Biden was able to flip all three states back to his column when he beat Trump in the 2020 race.
As of now, Trump’s 2020 coalition is less fractured, the DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners poll found.
Of those who backed the Republican four years ago, 86 percent said they’d support him in his second reelection bid.
Kennedy takes 5 percent of Trump’s 2020 vote share, while Biden receives 1 percent.
