CNN poll: Biden leads Trump in national head-to-head matchup

[floridafan]

CNN)Former Vice President Joe Biden holds a wide lead over President Donald Trump in the national race for the White House, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

Biden leads Trump 53% to 42% among registered voters, roughly steady from CNN's poll in early March. The nationwide picture shows Biden starts with an edge among voters generally

The coronavirus pandemic has drastically altered presidential campaigning. Biden and Trump have paused in-person campaign events, and states have pushed back primary elections until the summer months.

Biden holds an edge over Trump as more trusted to handle several key issues, including the response to the coronavirus outbreak (52% to 43%), health care (57% to 39%) and helping the middle class (57% to 38%).

The poster claimed that the polls like this are useless. I countered that poster.

She won the popular vote.

No she didn't. Trump won the popular vote 304-227. That's why he is the President and she is not.

...and I countered you.

...and I countered you.

No you didn't. You posted the Electoral College votes.

I always like to check the Real Clear Politics average of job approval polls.

DT already reached his peak in rally-round-the-flag polling for the corona virus. Heck, even 'heck-of-a-job-brownie' GWB got that during Katrina, initially. Until it became his Katrina.

Good aggregate information there. Past polls are listed, so you can see the trends.

DT's average job approval has fallen in the past week in nearly every frequent poll.

Job Approval:

Monmouth 46, previously 48
Quinnipiac 45, previously 41 (a month ago)
Reuters/Ipsos 42, previously 46
Economist/YouGov 45, previously 47
CNBC 46, previously 40 (in December)
CNN 44, previously 45
Rasmussen Reports 47, previously 48
Politico/Morning Consult 44, previously 45
IBD/TIPP 45, previously 41 (in February)
Grinnell/Selzer 48, previously 43 (in October)

We can see that the only polls he has improved in were old - mostly during the impeachment.

Looks like DT is goin Down...

There are multiple polls which cannot be ignored.

Nobody wants another 4 years of lies, cheating, and arrogance. Biden will win and take the senate along with him

Bawahahaha, so only 531 people voted in the election? Or is 304-227 the electoral count? You know there is a difference between the popular vote and the electoral vote?
