US Presidential Election | Voters say neither Joe Biden nor Donald Trump should run
Trump is the frontrunner for the Republican nomination and was the pick of 50 percent of registered Republicans in the poll, trailed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who was favoured by 24 percent of the party though he has not yet declared his candidacy.
In a hypothetical one-on-one contest, Biden led Trump 43 percent to 38 percent among registered voters, a lead for the Democrat that was just outside the poll's 4 percentage point credibility interval for registered voters. Biden also led among independent voters.
In another hypothetical two-person match up, DeSantis trailed further behind, with 34 percent to Biden's 43 percent.
The Reuters/Ipsos poll gathered responses from 1,005 adults across the United States, including 445 self-described Democrats and 361 Republicans.
