Fox News poll: Only 38 percent of Americans would vote to re-elect Donald Trump [View all]

While 38 percent of Americans said they will vote for Trump come 2020, 55 percent plan to vote for someone else

With the 2018 midterm polls long behind us, pollsters are starting to look at the 2020 presidential election. And according to a new poll from Fox News, good news awaits Democrats dissatisfied with Donald Trump's presidency.

Only 38 percent of Americans claim they would vote for Trump for a second term — while 55 percent say they plan to vote for his unknown rival. And even that is an improvement for the president. In April of 2017, 36 percent of Americans stated they would vote to re-elect Trump, while 56 percent already planned to oppose him.

Fox News also polled Americans on which potential Democratic candidate they found "excellent" or "good" for 2020. The poll found that 70 percent of Democrats rated former Vice President Joe Biden that way, while 63 percent of respondents said the same of former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. Then Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, at 38 percent, Rep. Beto O'Rourke of Texas, with 36 percent, Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey (34 percent) and California Sen. Kamala Harris, at a surprisingly low 33 percent, round out the frontrunners list.
