A recent poll released this week indicates that Democrats have not ruled out supporting Hillary Clinton if President Joe Biden withdraws from the 2024 campaign.

In contrast, she trailed Vice President Kamala Harris in popularity, making her the least popular vice president since NBC News began monitoring the metric.

Clinton, who is 75 years old, could still be a force in her party if the proper conditions and interests arose.

According to a Premise poll released on Monday, which Democrat would you support if President Biden does not run for reelection in 2024?

Harris prevailed by a razor-thin margin.

In the event that Biden does not run for president, 22% of those surveyed said they would choose Harris over another candidate.

Meanwhile, 17% of potential primary voters supported Clinton.

Although neither figure is particularly impressive, Clinton’s support indicates that she may still have a shot despite being out of the race for nearly seven years.

Clinton defeated independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California.

The respective poll results for males were 11% and 9%.

Votes were also cast for Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

Each candidate received 7 percent of the vote.
