The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Well...

"In a Biden-Trump matchup, the poll found 45 percent of voters would back Biden, while 48 percent would choose Trump. Harris would perform the same in a head-to-head matchup against the Republican, according to the poll.

Other,<b< lesser-known candidates would perform worse, although more voters would indicate they are "not sure" when it came to those matchups.

Whitmer would garner 44 percent of the vote, while Trump would get 46 percent in a head-to-head matchup, according to the poll. About 9 percent say they are not sure who they would vote for.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg would get 44 percent of the vote, compared to Trump's 47 percent. Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey would ask get 44 percent of the vote, while the Republican would get 46 percent—California Governor Gavin Newsom would get 44 percent to the former president's 47 percent.

Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro would each get 43 percent of the vote, compared to Trump's 46 percent, the poll found.

"The fact that other Democrats fare similarly to Biden against Trump suggests that this election is ultimately a referendum on Trump," Thomas Gift, an associate professor of political science and director of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, told Newsweek."

We have this from Newsweek, but it's only one poll.
