The race for the White House in 2024 is quickening with presidential hopefuls descending on pivotal states in a bid to secure their party’s nomination.

As things stand, it seems likely next year’s election will be a rerun of 2020 with Donald Trump hoping to reverse his defeat by Joe Biden.

But despite both men polling way ahead of their rivals, there is little enthusiasm among voters for either candidate.

A YouGov poll in August showed that 54 per cent of voters disapproved of Mr Biden and 58 per cent disapproved of Mr Trump.

Mr Biden’s critics say he is too old to run for office given he will be 81 by the next election. As a result of his son’s controversial business dealings, the president is also in danger of being mired in scandal, albeit by association.

Mr Trump, who will be 78 when voters go to the polls, is facing a series of criminal indictments with several cases due to go to court during the height of the election campaign.
