Younger Americans were more likely to face Biden with a new primary challenger than older adults, the poll found, suggesting the president’s age remains a risk.
The poll found that 69 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds said they would like to see another Democrat step in and challenge Biden, while only 43 percent of Americans over 65 agreed.
Among 30- to 44-year-olds, 61 percent said they would like to see Biden add another challenger, while 49 percent of 45- to 64-year-olds felt this way.
When the same group of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents were asked whether they wanted to see Biden or someone else as the 2024 nominee, Biden came out on top, with 46 percent saying Biden and 39 percent saying someone else.

His numbers were drastically dragged down by Republican sentiment.

Republicans were much harsher, with 86 percent saying Biden’s age was a major problem and 9 percent saying it was a minor problem.
Former President Donald Trump, Biden’s likely challenger, received slightly better marks when Americans were asked whether he was fit to serve another four years.
Thirty-eight percent said yes – compared to 24 percent for Biden – while 49 percent said no.
When Americans were asked which candidate had a bigger problem — Trump’s legal drama with Biden’s age — the results were a statistical correlation — with 41 percent answering Biden’s age and 42 percent answering Trump’s 91 criminal charges.
The survey surveyed 1,584 American adults between November 9 and November 13, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.8 percent.
