A new Monmouth poll finds Joe Biden leading Donald Trump nationally in the presidential race, 50% to 45% among likely voters.
Said pollster Patrick Murray: “Half the national electorate has been dead set against reelecting the president all along. But that does not mean they have completely gotten behind the challenger, particularly in the most competitive areas of the country.”
Also interesting: “Opinion of the two candidates has been fairly stable in recent polls, but one metric that has been moving is the number of voters who do not have a favorable opinion of either candidate. This currently stands at 13% of all registered voters, which is down slightly from 16% in early September and 22% in August. Biden remains the preferred choice among this group (39% to 24% for Trump).”
