President Joe Biden is facing a crisis with Democrat-leaning voters as he runs for reelection, with the majority saying they would prefer an alternative candidate citing concerns about his age.

President Biden is 80 years old, making him the oldest president in American history, and if reelected he would be 86 by the time he left office. Multiple surveys have shown that fact alone is enough for most Democratic voters to question whether he’s fit to run for the presidency a second time.
