Biden Holds Double-Digit Lead Nationally

May 20, 2020 · 2:03 pm ET · Leave a Comment

A new Quinnipiac poll finds Joe Biden leads Donald Trump in the presidential race nationally, 50% to 39%.

Trump’s job approval is 42% to 53%, and on the coronavirus response, 41% to 56%.

Said pollster Tim Malloy: “What does the 11 point Biden lead tell us? At best for Team Trump, it says voter confidence in President Trump is shaky. At worst for them, as coronavirus cases rise, Trump’s judgement is questioned – and November looms.”
