Democrats Win Big in 2023 State Elections; Biden Trails Trump in National Polls Amid Discontent Over Economy and Leadership

Democrats celebrate wins in local state elections, securing abortion rights in Ohio and governorship in Kentucky, while polls hint Trump could reclaim presidency with Biden's approval ratings falling and public discontent brewing.

• Despite Democrats winning in local state elections, including securing abortion rights in Ohio and the governorship in Kentucky, recent polls suggest President Biden trails Trump amid discontent over the economy and leadership.
• Biden's 'Bidenomics' strategy, highlighting strong job and economic growth numbers and his historic infrastructure package, seems to be failing with the public as concerns rise about the cost of living, high taxes, and economic well-being.
• The majority voters are not convinced that Biden has the stamina and sharpness to serve effectively as president, with only 25% indicating this belief.
• The results from the Ohio local election, enshrining abortion rights in the state constitution, suggest abortion rights remain a major political force for Democrats and a vulnerability for Republicans heading into future elections.
• While Biden's approval ratings are plummeting, other Democrats at the state level are experiencing success, suggesting that the president is less popular than some of his party's policies and other candidates.
