With two days to go, Democrat Joe Biden holds a commanding national lead over President Donald Trump amid deep voter concerns about the coronavirus pandemic, but Trump is keeping his hopes alive by staying competitive in the swing states that could decide the White House race.
Biden’s national lead over the Republican president has stayed relatively steady in recent months as the public health crisis has persisted. He is ahead 51% to 43% in the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll taken Oct. 27-29.
But Trump is still close to Biden in enough state battlegrounds to give him the 270 state Electoral College votes needed to win a second term. Reuters/Ipsos polls show that the race remains a toss up in Florida, North Carolina and Arizona.
Trump also trails by five points in Pennsylvania and nine points in Michigan and Wisconsin, three other battleground states that helped give him an Electoral College win in 2016 over Democrat Hillary Clinton, who won the popular vote.
But even without Michigan and Wisconsin, Trump can win again if he holds all of the other states he won in 2016.
Trump’s deficit in the polls has been driven in part by an erosion in support from two big parts of his winning 2016 coalition, whites without a college degree and older Americans, and by public disapproval of his handling of the pandemic, which has become the dominant issue in the race.

Their new motto should be: “All the Propaganda Unfit to Print.”
I know that Biden is way ahead in the polls in Ohio .....for the Senate.
Haha... Deep concerns over corona.. I believe it was #4 on list of concerns.
So obbvious from the massive Trump dwarfing rallies he’s been holding. I was afraid some of the venues would tip over.
Al Reuters is still bullshippin’
TRUMP RALLY IN BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA
Will somebody please fire these pollsters after they get it wrong—again?
Time for some consequences....
what a joke.... and claiming that independent voters approve of Biden by 18 points.
When Trump wins, and wins handily on Tuesday they press will once again claim it was a “shock” or “stunning upset” when in fact, Trump has been winning the entire race ...
So sick of their flying and artificial reality they keep trying to pretend exists.
Trump with every state he got in 16 plus most if not all states he too lost by under 5 and don’t be shocked if a few he lost by more than 5 he wins as well.
Final tally. Trump by 320 EC vote +/- 10 Possibly more.
The will try to pretend chaos over mail in votes will change things, but they won’t... just more desperation like last time. (The EC can defy the voters etc etc).
Well, there you have it. It's commanding! It's a lead! Might as well not vote. Perhaps that logic works for lazy ass Democrats. There vote is not needed. Biden even said so yesterday.

Hillary is 20 points ahead, Trump has NO Chance and should drop out now to avoid an embarrassing loss!!!
Opinion Polls are and always have been designed to Shape Opinion, NOT reflect it, they are the definition of Propaganda.
I do believe when you are gaining ground it used to be called momentum. Momentum used to be considered a very positive sign for a campaign...I guess things have changed...BWAHAHAHA
The main stream media, when you need something absolutely worthless but submarine screen doors just aren’t enough.
Fire the pollsters, fire the Debate Commission hacks.
Refuse Democrat activists access to the White House press pool.
Boris Yetlsin was a moderate compared to Joseph Stalin. Still a Communist though...
I Don’t Make Predictions, But...

First, let’s understand what we are looking to achieve this Tuesday. This is all about 270 electoral college votes, nothing else. You know that. You’re smart. You don’t read Vox. But, I just wanted to reiterate... the national popular vote is literally meaningless, and by extension, national popular opinion polls that reflect the national presidential preference is absolutely meaningless. So ignore it.
We are about to engage in 51 elections—one in each state and the District of Columbia. The winner of those elections will determine the distribution of electors for the electoral college. The candidate who achieves 270 electoral votes will be president for the next four years.
