Biden pulls ahead of Trump
Headline from Newsweek: “Joe Biden now leads Donald Trump in Presidential Polling Average.” Palmer Report said it would happen. It gives me the utmost pleasure to tell you that, according to “The Economist”, Biden has jumped ahead in the polling average.
Newsweek says: “At least three polls conducted in March have indicated Biden would beat Trump in November’s election.” Public Policy Polling has Biden ahead 46 percent to 45. A new Reuters/Ipsos poll has Biden ahead five points in a three-way race (The third is RFK Junior.)
In this poll Biden receives 43%, Trump gets 38%, and RFK Junior gets 12%, which would seem to indicate that RFK is taking voters from Trump, not Biden. Now — I am not saying these polls will stay the same or that they’re all accurate. As I said, I tell you about these polls because if not us, then who?
As of the time of this writing, I have yet to see one television network talk about these polls. I DID get to hear CNN last night wail about how Black voters are running from Biden to Trump. (Not true.) Their proof? Biden’s ahead of Trump with black voters, but not as much as four years ago!
This is why I speak about these polls. If it were up to the media, many of them would have you believe that Trump’s ahead, creaming Biden. Although most polls show Biden ahead in the last couple of weeks, most in the media will not discuss it.
However, If ONE poll comes out with Trump ahead — that’s all you’ll hear about. So, I will continue to shout out the REAL News of the day regarding polling.
The real news is that contrary to desperate pundits lamenting Biden had no State of the Union bounce, it certainly seems he did, and that bounce is showing up in the polls.
It’s no surprise. Lately, the good news for Biden has been an unending waterfall, flowing with delight and I think I like it. I hope you do as well.
