If DeSantis were to be the nominee, according to likely voters, Biden would take the lead in that context. Rust Belt voters polled said that they preferred Biden to Florida's anti-woke governor DeSantis, 38.3 percent to 33.9 percent. In that case, more than 13 percent would opt for a third party while 14.4 percent stated they were undecided.
DeSantis has not yet announced his intention to run, but is expected to make an announcement in the coming weeks.
Biden does lead the Democrats, and he has the full force of the party, and four years in the White House, behind him. He holds 59.7 percent of likely voters, while Robert Kennedy Jr. sees 13.6 percent.
