Trial Balloon · Ep. 192: November Surprises

Biden’s Support Slips in Deep Blue New York

July 10, 2024 · 6:23 am ET · Leave a Comment

Politico: “Biden aides have not focused on New York, committing no significant resources to a state where they expect the president to easily win all 28 electoral college votes in November.”

“But the warning signs are impossible to ignore and have been building over the past year. Two private polls conducted in a swing New York House district and reviewed by Politico— one in September and another in March — found former President Donald Trump leading Biden there by 1 point, a virtual tie. And public polls over the last four months found Biden’s lead had winnowed to just 8 points across New York — an unusually narrow gap in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 2 to 1.”
