RFK Jr. ranks higher in favorability than other major 2024 candidates: poll Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine activist and environmental lawyer who is running for the Democratic nomination for president, has a higher favorability rating than many of the other 2024 presidential candidates, according to a new poll.
The poll from The Economist and YouGov released Wednesday showed Kennedy was viewed favorably by 49 percent of respondents, giving him the highest net favorability rating of 19 points.
Biden had a minus-9 net favorability rating, while Trump had a minus-10 net favorability rating.
I’d be interested to see how much of his favorability comes down to name recognition and people on some level attaching his father’s policy preferences to him. It’s also six months before anyone is really paying attention to the primaries, or even before anyone really knows what he’s running on. Once he starts talking about the evils of vaccination and how Ukraine needs to just surrender to Russia already, his numbers will come down.
