Joe Biden takes a photo with a supporter at a campaign event in Reno on Monday.Here's one challenge Joe Biden faces on the debate stage tonight: Persuading the party that he is capable of beating President Trump.
For all the talk that the party is focused on defeating Mr. Trump, Journal/NBC News polling has told a different story. Given two options, most Democratic voters said in several 2019 surveys that their principal goal in the primaries was to find a candidate who came closest to their views on policy issues. By contrast, a smaller share, some 40% to 45%, said it was most important to find a candidate who could win the general election.
Something else has changed since last year: Last summer, Mr. Biden was far and away the preferred candidate of voters who said beating Mr. Trump was the most important consideration. Now, just at the moment when more Democrats are emphasizing electability, Mr. Biden is no longer the top choice among this group. His 17% support is down from 34% in July.
