A new poll shows that a full 26% of Democrats want Joe Biden replaced following Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation against him, a not-so-insignificant number given the tight matchup he will surely face against President Trump.

A Monday Morning Consult poll showed that 61% of Democrats believe that Biden appeared “very credible” or “somewhat credible” during his interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” last week wherein he unequivocally denied Reade’s allegation against him. Though a majority, 61% leaves a sizable number of people who disbelieve Biden, many of whose votes he will need come November.
