Former first lady Michelle Obama easily bested former president Donald Trump in a hypothetical polling matchup, making her the only Democrat to do so.
Obama garnered 50 percent support among registered voters compared to Trump’s 39 percent, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday. Only 4 percent said they would not vote at all in a potential race between Obama and Trump. In comparison, the presumptive Democratic nominee, President Joe Biden, was evenly matched with his Republican opponent at 40 percent. Eight percent said they would vote for another candidate in that case, and an additional 8 percent said they wouldn’t vote.
