Across all of the swing state polls, Trump leads Biden 47 percent to 42 percent.
These states are key for determining the 2024 election.
Biden “is making no gains among groups he is going to need to pull off a victory next year,” Eli Yokley, US politics analyst at Morning Consult, told Bloomberg.
“Instead of worrying about polls a year out, our campaign is focused on earning every vote and highlighting the stakes between the extreme MAGA agenda and President Biden’s popular agenda that has delivered for young people, and Americans of all ages,” said Daniel Wessel, a Biden campaign spokesman, in a statement to the newspaper.
Mediaite reports:A greater proportion of voters trusts the former president more than the incumbent on the economy (51%-33%), immigration (49%-32%), U.S.-China relations (47%-33%), the war between Russia and Ukraine (45%-34%), the war between Israel and Hamas (44%-33%), and guns (44%-35%). Biden boasts advantages over Trump on healthcare (41%-39%), entitlements (42%-40%), abortion (39%-36%), democracy (42%-39%), and climate change (42%-30%).
The report added, "Notably, Trump would not necessarily even have to win the popular vote in order to prevail in next year’s general election. Biden won the popular vote in 2020 by 4.5% and even won the Electoral College by over 70 votes. But it was only his razor-thin margins of victory in several swing states, including Georgia (.23%), Pennsylvania (1.17%), Arizona (.30%), and Wisconsin (.63%) that ultimately propelled Biden to victory."
