Nationwide Poll: Biden Leads By 8%
Biden’s Approval Rating Up 3 Points to 59%
Trump’s Approval Rating at 38%
With just a week to go until the election, a new nationwide poll shows Joe Biden leading President Trump by 8%, 52% to 44%. This is a slight increase from last week's poll, which had Biden leading by 7%. The poll also shows Biden's approval rating up 3 points to 59%, while Trump's approval rating remains unchanged at 38%.
The poll was conducted by the Pew Research Center and surveyed 1,502 registered voters from October 29-November 2, 2020. The margin of error is plus or minus 2.9 percentage points. This poll is just one of many that have shown Biden leading Trump in the final weeks of the campaign.
A recent poll by the New York Times/Siena College found Biden leading by 11 points, 52% to 41%. A poll by ABC News/Washington Post found Biden leading by 12 points, 54% to 42%. And a poll by CNN found Biden leading by 10 points, 53% to 43%.
These polls suggest that Biden is in a strong position to win the election. However, it is important to note that polls can be wrong. In 2016, for example, many polls showed Hillary Clinton leading Trump in the final weeks of the campaign. However, Trump ultimately won the election.
It is also important to note that these polls are only a snapshot of the electorate at a particular point in time. The polls could change significantly in the final week of the campaign, especially if there are any major events or developments.
