The 2024 presidential election is quickly heating up. Americans are steadily getting more insight about prospective candidates and how they'll fare in both primary and general races.

Right now, it is a given that former President Trump is on the campaign trail and looking to get back into the White House. Meanwhile, Joe Biden is also expected to announce his own reelection campaign either during or after his State of the Union address later this month.

On the Republican side, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley is expected to announce her own candidacy for president before March arrives. Likewise, all eyes are peeled for whether or not Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will run for president.

With Trump and Biden all but guaranteed to both be 2024 presidential contenders, new polling shows that most Americans don't want a rematch between these two.

The latest news on the ground

According to data from ABC-Washington Post, 49% of the GOP wants a 2024 nominee that is not Trump. Meanwhile, a staggering 58% of Democrats don't want Biden as their nominee going into the 2024 presidential race.

In recent years, there have been bipartisan calls for a generational shift in political leaders. Last year, this led many Democrats to urge against former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi trying to remain in power.

Likewise, as Trump continues attacking DeSantis (amid fear of the latter running), GOP Sen. John Cornyn described the Florida governor as "new blood" the Republican Party could benefit from in the presidential election.

Time will tell which nominees are chosen to represent the Republican and Democratic Parties. As this year plays out, Americans can look forward to more insight and information.

A brutal election

Given swarming disagreements about elections in this country, 2024 is expected to be brutal, regardless of which candidates are nominated. Moreover, there are speculations that whichever side ends up losing could raise questions about the legitimacy of the election's outcome.

For this reason, some Americans have suggested that unfounded claims or conspiracy theories about elections have reached a dangerous level. There are also warnings about societal harm when swaths of the population mistrust how a nation's elections function.
