Biden vs Trump: who is leading the 2020 US election polls

https://ig.ft.com/us-election-2020/

If the election were held today, the latest polls suggest this outcome in the electoral college (270 votes required to win) :

Joe Biden DEMOCRAT 279

Donald Trump REPUBLICAN 122

Toss-up 137

States where the difference in poll numbers between Biden and Trump is less than 5 percentage points are classified as ‘toss-up’ states.

State Votes

Texas 38
Florida 29
Ohio 18
Georgia 16
N Carolina 15
Arizona 11
S Carolina 9
Maine-2 1

With two months to go before the US presidential election, former vice-president Joe Biden, the Democratic party’s nominee, is polling ahead of incumbent Republican president Donald Trump in key battleground states, though he has seen his lead narrow in some states since the summer. In Wisconsin, where Mr Trump won by a razor thin margin in 2016, Mr Biden currently holds a 6 point lead. In Florida, where Covid cases soared during the summer, Mr Biden leads Mr Trump by about 4 percentage points. Mr Biden also holds a narrow lead in Arizona, a state only one Democratic presidential candidate has won in the past 70 years, and an even narrower one in North Carolina, which has voted Republican in nine out of the last 10 presidential elections. In Texas, the difference in poll numbers between the two men is less than 5 percentage points, also suggesting a close race in November in the quintessential red state.

National polls show Mr Biden at a significant advantage. White seniors in particular, a group that helped propel Mr Trump to victory in 2016, have shown signs of disapproval towards the president's handling of the pandemic.
Of course, it's early days and, as we know, polls mean nothing - it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings .....

Who's ahead in national polls?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-...eporting-story

DEMOCRAT BIDEN 51%

REPUBLICAN TRUMP 43%
Who's leading in the battleground states?

At the moment, polls in the battleground states look good for Joe Biden, but there's a long way to go and things can change very quickly, especially when Donald Trump's involved.

The polls suggest Mr Biden is ahead in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - three industrial states his Republican rival won by margins of less than 1% to clinch victory in 2016.

Are these the same type of polls that predicted a landslide victory for Jeremy Corbyn in the last two elections? We know how they turned out don't we?

Joe Biden is border-line senile and doesn't know what day it is half the time. Any replies to answers at meetings, he reads off an autocue. Biden is the acceptable face of the DP and will be controlled (if by some freak of chance he actually gets elected) by others, probably Hilary Clinton as she has no chance of getting elected herself because:

a) she is a woman (tut, tut. Can't have a female president), and
b) because she is Hilary Clinton and nobody likes her.

So come the election, it will be the choice between two buffoons, an orange one with a dodgy wig, or a daft old groper.

"All Men Are Created Equal"

In the light of recent stories, from the USA, I am surprised that neither candidate seems to be shouting about the American Constitution and this item which Jefferson is said to have put in there.

If you want the people to rally around you, surely this would be a suitable Mantra?

Make the Promise, Get Elected?

Unless you were black of course. Jefferson himself kept slaves so perhaps that's why moves are afoot to remove him off the US currency?

Re: Biden vs Trump: who is leading the 2020 US election polls

It's quite interesting that the Constitution was compiled to apply to the WHITE immigrants principally from England in order to set out a latter-day Magna Carta to eliminate all the discrimination they had experienced in the Old World and them alone. It was do-gooders who came along later and who mainly for political reasons set about attacking the South undermining the Southern economy. The rest is very unfortunate history based on a nonsense.
