Michelle Obama is gaining traction as a potential replacement for Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket in 2024, according to a new poll. Nearly half of Democratic voters surveyed expressed approval of finding another candidate to replace Biden before the election in November. Michelle Obama led the list of potential replacements with 20% support, followed by Kamala Harris at 15% and Hillary Clinton at 12%.
In a recent interview, Obama admitted to being terrified about the 2024 election and stressed the importance of selecting the right leaders. Despite rumors that she may run for office, Obama has repeatedly stated that she has no interest in pursuing a political career. She believes that she is more effective outside of politics, where she can continue to focus on serving and helping others.
However, Senator Ted Cruz has warned that Democrats may choose to “parachute in” Michelle Obama as a last-minute candidate in 2024. With Biden’s approval ratings plummeting, Obama’s popularity could make her a formidable opponent against any Republican candidate. As speculation continues to swirl, it remains to be seen whether Obama will enter the race or hold true to her stated intentions of staying out of politics.
