Joe Biden has opened up his biggest poll lead over Donald Trump since
securing the nomination, with a new nationwide survey showing him with a 15-point advantage in the race for the White House.
Registered voters back the former vice president over the incumbent 52 –
37 per cent, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released
on Wednesday. The same poll one month ago gave Mr Biden a lead of eight
points, 49 – 41 per cent.

The poll suggested that independent voters were behind the shift. Back in
June, independent voters were split nearly evenly between the two – now Mr Biden leads 51 – 34 per cent.
“Yes, there’s still 16 weeks until Election Day, but this is a very unpleasant real-time look at what the future could be for President Trump. There is no upside, no silver lining, no encouraging trend hidden
somewhere in this survey for the president,” said Quinnipiac University polling analyst
The poll surveyed 1,273 self-identified registered voters nationwide
between 9 –13 July, with a margin of error of 2.8 percentage points.
Perhaps the standout figure from the poll is that Mr Biden now leads Mr
Trump on the public’s opinion of who would better handle the economy. The poll found that Mr Biden leads 50 - 45 per cent, a reversal of a June
survey when Mr Trump led 51 – 46 percent.
Mr Trump’s fortunes have continued to slide as the public has soured on
his handling of the coronavirus pandemic. More than 3.4 million Americans
have been infected with the virus and at least 136,800 have died.
“Voters give the president a negative 35 – 62 percent approval rating for his handling of the coronavirus response, his lowest mark since the
question was first asked in March,” Quinnipiac said.
### - gud! :)
plus methinks by now the whole world will breathe a loud sigh of relief
when he goes!
mind you, he doesn't at all seem the type to go quietly? (nutjobs hardly
ever do!)
so fingers crossed he just throws-in the towel early in-disgust then huh ;)
what a relief that would be! :)))
