President Joe Biden is losing substantial ground with minority voters while former President Donald Trump is gaining significantly, according to a poll released on Monday.

Party officials are becoming increasingly worried that Biden will cost them the 2024 election, according to The Wall Street Journal.
“It would be irresponsible for us to not be concerned at this point,” a Democratic National Committee official told the WSJ. “People can be hopeful about what the result is going to be. But we don’t have any evidence as to why we should be hopeful. The polling is bad. The approval ratings are bad. We know about concerns about both the president’s age and about the vice president if she were to take over.”
The poll also found that 76% of voters view Biden as “too old,” which is close to the percentage recorded in a September WSJ poll. Although Trump is only three years younger than Biden, only 48% of voters believe he is too elderly.
The Monmouth poll was carried out via telephone between Sept. 19 and Sept. 24 and included 814 American adults, but the question results pertain to 737 registered voters. It has a 4.5% margin of error.
