A new national poll from NBC News has Donald Trump in the lead for 2024.
This NBC poll, taken between Nov. 10 and 14, reported Trump has 46% of registered voters' support while President Joe Biden rallied 44%. However, with the margin of error between 5.5 and 5.6 percentage points, the results are still close.

"It’s the first time in more than a dozen polls we’ve seen a result like this," MSNBC political correspondent Steve Kornacki said Sunday on Meet the Press.
Trump also won the vote of the youngest respondents, ages 18-34, at 46%. Meanwhile, Biden had 42% of the young vote.
Both of these front runners reported losses when the respondents were asked how they would vote if Biden or Trump weren't the nominees. Should an anonymous candidate win the Republican nomination that's not Trump, that candidate would beat Biden by double digits with 48% compared to Biden's 37%. If Biden was not the Democratic nominee, that hypothetical candidate had 46% of the vote compared to Trump's 40%.

Ron DeSantis had the support of 18%, and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley had 13%, while former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy were tied at 3%
Biden has three Democratic opponents ahead of 2024, including Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN), author Marianne Williamson, and YouTube news anchor Cenk Uygur.
