A recent poll from Sienna College shows that President Biden’s lead over former President Trump in New York has dropped to single digits, with Biden currently leading Trump 47% to 38%. This is a slight narrowing of the gap since last month. New York voters remain deeply polarized, with 32% saying a Biden victory will harm America irreparably, and 41% saying the same about a Trump victory. Just 18% of voters are confident that America will survive and thrive regardless of the outcome. The poll, conducted from May 13-15, surveyed 1,191 registered New York voters and has a margin of error of 3.9%.
Former President Trump has been spending time in Manhattan, where he is on trial, delivering near-daily statements to the press outside the courtroom. Trump has expressed his intention to win New York in the next election. A poll from the New York Times earlier this month showed Trump leading Biden in five of six key battleground states, including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. Biden narrowly leads in Wisconsin, but overall, Trump is ahead of Biden in these states. The polls also included third-party and independent candidates, such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was receiving around 10% support across the six states and drawing support equally from both Biden and Trump.
Despite Biden’s current lead over Trump in New York and the polls indicating a tight race in key battleground states, Trump remains optimistic about his chances in the next election. He believes that he can win New York and is actively campaigning in the state. Trump has been vocal about his love for New York and its people, and he is confident in his ability to secure a victory in the state. With six months until Election Day, both candidates are focusing on key battleground states and trying to rally support among voters in those areas.
The polls suggest that the race between Biden and Trump is deadlocked, with both candidates having strong support in different states. Trump’s lead in key battleground states like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania could give him an advantage in the upcoming election. Biden’s narrow lead in Wisconsin shows that the race is competitive and could go either way. With the addition of third-party and independent candidates like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the race becomes more complex, with these candidates potentially influencing the outcome in favor of one candidate over the other.
As the election draws closer, both Biden and Trump are working hard to secure support in key battleground states and across the country. The polls indicate a close race between the two candidates, with Trump leading in some key states and Biden narrowly ahead in others. With voters deeply polarized and divided over the two candidates, the outcome of the election remains uncertain. Both candidates are campaigning actively and trying to appeal to a wide range of voters to ensure victory in the upcoming election.
