the November 2024 presidential election. Incumbent President Joe Biden has the support of 44% of those polled followed by former President Donald Trump with 37%.

While it is still to early to see if RFK Jr. will get close to Perot's electoral strength he is off to a promising start. Kennedy is also showing strong campaign fundraising reporting $6.1 million in the bank as of his September 30 filing with the Federal Election Commission.
