CNN Poll: Biden expands lead over Trump after contentious debate and President's Covid diagnosis (projectile!)
CNN ^ | October 6, 2020 | Jennifer Agiesta, CNN Polling Director

Posted on 10/06/2020 3:50:49 PM PDT by ProtectOurFreedom

Among likely voters, 57% say they back Biden and 41% Trump in the poll that was conducted entirely after the first debate and mostly after the President's coronavirus infection was made public.

Likely voters broadly prefer Biden over Trump on a number of issues that voters consider critically important in the race, including

The two are about even over who would better handle the economy (50% say Biden, 48% Trump), similar to where they have been among registered voters in recent polling.

Biden's favorability ratings have also improved, with 52% of Americans now saying they have a positive impression of the former vice president, compared with 39% who have a positive view of Trump.

Likely voters are more apt to consider Biden the candidate:

Biden has expanded his edge over Trump among women, from 57% to 37% in September to 66% to 32% now. That shift includes substantial gains for Biden among white women with college degrees and women of color.

Among people of color generally, Biden's advantage has increased from 59% to 31% in September to 69% to 27% now. The former vice president has also made gains among younger voters, moderates and independents over the last month.

The guy stays in his rabbit warren, rarely ventures out, talks to 50 people at a time (max), has a 47 year record of failure, won't take a stand on anything, says he will raise taxes, has never once condemned antifa or BLM, supports the riots, is a lifelong racist, did nothing but "ME TOO" on COVID belatedly echoing Trump's real actions, and will usher in communism. I guess nobody but us kids here on FR understand this. How anybody think such a person could unite the country is beyond me.

Trump has a base. They are not offended nor swayed by his defending himself and us from Biden and his people

So. No sale

If you have a chance, watch his speech today from Gettysburg. Filled with the exact same scripted promises all of his speeches have been on him uniting the country, all of a sudden supporting law and order and being against riots and complaining about how Trump handled Covid. All he did was tell everybody he would do a better job, gave no specifics and walked off to the applause of 10 to 15 reporters after not taking questions once again.

They forgot one stat and you can almost see it when looking at the numbers.

CNN’s Likely voters: (my guess) 70% Democrats - 30% Republicans and Moderates

I’m typically one that says “Believe the polls! Fake or not! It will only result in our side working harder and in the end win by an even bigger margin”

I can’t even come close to thinking that with this CNN poll. “Clown News Network” is well stated. A joke!

Here’s a question for you:

You think the media is coming out with these fake numbers in order to create disbelief and make room for conspiracy theories when the actual election result numbers come out and Trump actually wins?

Is this all to give Speaker Pelosi an opening to come out and point out that there is something just not right after all the polling data had Biden winning and Trump still wins the election.

Will there be investigations over the disagreement between the pre-election polling data and the actual election results?

Anyone that believes a CNN poll probably believes in Unicorns and Leprechauns too.

First, they lie to us hoping to depress Trump’s vote. That will not happen.

Second, After years of pushing the poison they are now drinking it too. Their political prophets are lying to the “king” and for them it means disaster. See 1 Kings 22:22. There’s more going on here than meets the eye.

If these numbers were true and if libs believed these numbers, they wouldn't be nearly as ABSOLUTELY UNHINGED as they are, and more so as days go by.

It's meant to depress and discourage Republicans.

i understand people who are concerned about the plethora of polls showing the President behind but i mean seriously?

Likely voters broadly prefer Biden over Trump on a number of issues that voters consider critically important in the race, including:

crime and safety (55% to 43%)
