One in five people who voted for President Joe Biden in November regret their decision, a Zogby Poll found.
With an election that former President Donald Trump lost because of close outcomes in several battleground states, 20% of voters showing Biden remorse is significant, according to Zogby Analytics.
One notable aspect of the poll is that it was conducted before the U.S. service member withdrawal from Afghanistan — for which Biden has been criticized greatly.
“On the surface, [20%] doesn’t seem like much, especially if you look at the three-quarters of likely voters who did not regret their vote; 4% were not sure how they felt,” pollster Jonathan Zogby said of the survey results.
“[But] if you take into consideration the size of the electorate, and how the last two presidential elections (2016 and 2020) were decided by tens of thousands of votes in a handful of battleground states, this could really hurt President Biden’s chances in 2024.”
Interestingly, the poll found that more Democrats (21%) than independents (14%) regretted voting for Biden. Among Republicans who voted for Biden, 29% said they regretted their votes.
