Although Democrats are working hard to come to terms with he inevitable reality that former Vice President Joe Biden will be their nominee for president, enthusiasm for Biden remains relatively low and is certainly not yet high-pitched enough to benefit Biden in the general election.

According to a new HuffPost/YouGov poll, a full 77% of Democrats believe that Biden will be the nominee, a scenario that does not exactly inspire enthusiasm.

“A 77% majority of Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters now say Biden is the most likely to win the primary ― a stark change from a poll taken after the New Hampshire primary, when only 15% considered him the probable victor,” reports HuffPost.

Just 48% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters expressed enthusiasm about Biden as the nominee. Another 21% said they would be markedly upset. Given that Biden will be taking on an incumbent president, low enthusiasm (and nearly a quarter of voters outright opposed) could be damaging in battleground states where voter turnout will be a deciding factor. There will certainly be a decline if Sanders’ supporters boycott the Democrats’ nominee over charges of a “stolen” process.
