WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden’s team is raising the Democratic sweep of this month’s key elections as proof that he’s in good position to win a second term. Yet many Democrats are fearful that there is a serious disconnect between the popularity of Biden’s agenda and the president himself. Biden’s approval ratings remain stubbornly low and voters continue to register concerns about his age. Biden advisers argue their policies and positions are popular with the American public even if the president isn’t. And last Tuesday’s elections were centered on abortion rights, which majorities of Americans support and Democrats focused on heavily as key to victory.
