A new national poll suggests that independent presidential candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornell West pull support from both President Biden and former President Donald Trump — the two likely major party nominees — in a hypothetical four-way 2024 general election showdown.
Biden stands at 47% support and Trump at 46% among registered voters in a Quinnipiac University poll released on Wednesday. The findings are unchanged from Quinnipiac's August and September surveys.
"Democrats support Biden 94 - 4 percent and Republicans support Trump 94 - 4 percent. Independents are split, with 45 percent supporting Trump and 44 percent supporting Biden," the survey's release states.
When Kennedy is added to the mix, Biden stands at 39%, Trump 36% and Kennedy at 22% support.
Kennedy, an environmental lawyer and high-profile vaccine critic who is a scion of arguably the nation’s most famous family political dynasty, launched a Democrat primary challenge against Biden in April.
