On June 30, 2024, President Biden departed New York State on Air Force One. Following the first televised election debate by Reuters on June 27, the incumbent President Biden seeking re-election performed worse than expected. A post-debate poll shows over 70% of respondents doubt Biden's mental capacity to continue as President, with 45% of Democratic voters suggesting he should withdraw. A new CBS News/YouGov poll on June 30 also reveals concerns about Biden's mental and cognitive abilities, indicating 72% of registered voters feel he is unfit, higher than the previous 65%. Despite some advisors claiming grassroots voters are not as worried as politicians, there is still unease within the Democratic Party and increased preference for a different candidate.
