Most Massachusetts Democrats do not want President Biden running at the top of the 2024 ticket, while GOP voters remain loyal to Trump, a new state poll finds.

A Suffolk University/Boston Globe survey found that about 64% of likely Massachusetts Democratic voters said that they would prefer a candidate other than Biden to represent the party on the 2024 ballot against former President Donald Trump. Additionally, only 29% of Democratic voters said that they are satisfied with Biden being their party's nominee.

In contrast, about 69% of likely Republican Massachusetts voters are happy with Trump as the GOP nominee.

Despite most Democrats preferring Biden be replaced as the nominee, the president still holds a wide lead over Trump in a hypothetical general matchup in the state, 47% to 29%.

The survey was conducted among likely Massachusetts voters from July 16 to 18 with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
