Biden is losing his edge with voters
By Andrea Widburg
For some time now, despite being a mentally incoherent man, with a corrupt past and a current sexual assault claim hanging over his head, Biden kept leading Trump in the polls. Suddenly, though, Biden’s lead has slipped to the point at which he and Trump are in a statistical heat. More importantly, Biden is not even holding the same ground that Hillary Clinton held at the same time in her 2016 campaign.
The fact that Trump is out there being a leader, while Biden is reading a TelePrompter from his basement is having an effect. Reuters reports:
Joe Biden's advantage over President Donald Trump in popular support has eroded in recent weeks as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee struggles for visibility with voters during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday.
The opinion poll conducted on Monday and Tuesday found that 43% of registered voters said they would support Biden in the Nov. 3 presidential election, while 41% said they would back Trump. That makes the contest essentially a toss-up, as the results are within the poll's credibility interval.
Biden led by 6 percentage points in a similar poll last week and by 8 points in a poll that ran April 15 to 21.
