First pediatric patient to undergo scoliosis surgery from robotic arm | SaltWireWASHINGTON - President Joe Biden is hemorrhaging support among voters without college degrees - a large group that includes Black people, Hispanic women, young voters and suburban women - producing a far tighter rematch against his Republican predecessor Donald Trump than seen in 2020, Reuters/Ipsos polling reveals.

Reuters looked at the responses of more than 8,000 registered voters in Reuters/Ipsos polls in March through May 2024 and over 16,000 in the same period in 2020. McConnell and her husband rely on Social Security benefits. A graduate of a two-year college, she has worked in a cannery and a salt mine. In retirement, she took a pair of part-time jobs to earn extra money as prices spiked. McConnell said she plans to vote in November, but hasn't made up her mind who she'll pick.

Julio Miranda, 47, of Canoga Park, California, said his household expenses have ballooned during Biden's term in office. Chris Wells, 47, the owner of a gym in Charleston, South Carolina, voted for Biden in 2020 but now is concerned about the 81-year-old president's age and physical health. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as an independent and has received double-digit support in many polls, also complicates the matter.

This year, marginally higher shares of non-college educated voters say they could vote for a third-party candidate, or not at all. Among voters aged 18-29, Biden's support fell 11 percentage points, to 37%. Trump is up slightly with this demographic at 30%, while slightly larger shares are undecided or say they won't vote.
