Poll: Trump SURGES Neck and Neck with Biden, Reports of Trump’s Defeat ‘Greatly Exaggerated

31

Sounds like 2016 all over again.

The Wsshington Examiner reports: While the media have been hyping polls showing Democrat Joe Biden with a sizable and growing lead over President Trump, the outfit that called the 2016 popular vote correctly shows the 2020 race neck and neck.

A week after finding that Trump closed a 10-point gap with Biden to just 3 points, Rasmussen Reports today revealed that Trump has edged up another point as Biden hits a ceiling.

On Wednesday, the race stood at 45% for Trump and 47% for Biden, well within the poll’s margin of error. It was published in Rasmussen’s weekly “White House Watch” feature.

Separately, Rasmussen said that Trump has boosted his approval rating to 49%, with 50% of respondents disapproving.

What’s more, at this stage of his presidency, former President Barack Obama also had a 49% approval rating and went on to win reelection with 51% of the vote.

Unlike some polls that undercount Republicans and survey adults or registered voters, Rasmussen slightly overcounts Democrats and polls likely voters, which is considered more accurate. In 2016, it had Hillary Clinton leading Trump nationally on the eve of the election by 2 points. Clinton won the popular vote by 2.1 points.

Poll from 10 Battleground States: Reports of Trump’s Defeat ‘Greatly Exaggerated’

Breitbart News, July 23, 23020:

Poll results released Wednesday by American Principles Project (APP) and SPRY Strategies found that President Donald Trump leads Joe Biden in seven of ten battleground states, with a narrow lead in four of them.

According to the poll, Trump is currently leading Biden in Georgia (49-46 percent); Kentucky (60-34 percent); Michigan (50-45 percent); Montana (52-42 percent); North Carolina (49-46 percent); Pennsylvania (48-47 percent); and Texas (49-45 percent).

The results also indicate Biden is leading Trump in Arizona (49-45 percent); Iowa (48-46 percent); and Wisconsin (46-45 percent).

“It is clear from our polling that the reports of President Trump’s impending electoral doom are greatly exaggerated,” said Terry Schilling, executive director at APP, a nonprofit dedicated to the Constitution. He added:

While the Trump campaign still has much work to do in defining Joe Biden as a feckless enabler of the worst elements of the radical left, the fundamentals of this race are encouraging. While Trump currently trails in some battlegrounds, he also leads in several states where many political pundits have already written him off.

According to APP, the ten states were selected based on their “expected competitiveness” in the general election “in either the presidential race, a U.S. Senate race, or both,” said a press release.

The poll yielded the following results in nine U.S. Senate races:

Arizona: Mark Kelly (D) 48% vs. Martha McSally (R) 41%

Georgia: David Perdue (R) 46% vs. Jon Ossoff (D) 44%

Georgia: (Special): Doug Collins (R) 29%, Matt Lieberman (D) 23%, Kelly Loeffler (R) 19%, Ed Tarver (D) 9%

Iowa: Theresa Greenfield (D) 45%, Joni Ernst (R) 43%

Kentucky: Mitch McConnell (R) 55%, Amy McGrath (D) 33%

Michigan: Gary Peters (D) 47%, John James (R) 37%

Montana: Steve Daines (R) 47%, Steve Bullock (D) 44%

North Carolina: Cal Cunningham (D) 40%, Thom Tillis (R) 40%

Texas: John Cornyn (R) 47%, M.J. Hegar (D) 37%

A survey also asked participants about issues such as Black Lives Matter, removing statues and monuments, transgender athletes and medical interventions, online pornography, and Big Tech’s suppression of free speech. Links are provided above to each state’s results.

Schilling said of the outcomes:

On hot-button issues, the survey results were also very interesting. Black Lives Matter is very popular, until voters learn what Black Lives Matter actually supports — then it becomes very unpopular. Voters hate the idea of biological males competing against female athletes in women’s sports. They strongly oppose minors being subjected to sex changes or gender conversion therapy. They want to protect kids from online pornography, and they want Big Tech companies to allow free speech and free expression on their platforms.

According to APP, the poll was conducted in each of the ten states using a statewide, scientific sample of 42,000 likely general election voters who had voted in at least two of the last four elections (2012, 2014, 2016, 2018), in addition to new voters who registered from May 1, 2018 to July 14, 2020.

Making it a phony con on the Black community.

I was watching Life, Liberty & Levin last Sunday through streaming on TBS. In a Commercial break there was the most racist, inflammatory ad that simply had on the screen:
“NO LIVES MATTER IF BLACK LIVES DON’T MATTER”

I was enraged! First, who in the hell said Black lives don’t matter???!

Second, they didn’t identify who put the ad up.

I filed a FCC complaint. Several days later I get an email saying there is nothing they could do about it because it wasn’t on a NETWORK….they can only do something if it is on broadcast stations!?

I’m now going to write TBS and Comcast.

This is nothing but Commie Propaganda…designed to keep us at each others’ throats….

Barrack Hussein Obama: “In Chaos, there is Opportunity.” Yeah….we know what kind of opportunity
you are looking for…..Marxist Bastrado.

We need everything down the ballot as well. If we don’t win the House it’ll be 4 more years of impeaching. If we lose the Senate, it’ll be bye Trump, then bye Pence, then hello President Pelosi.

The idea that DEMS aren’t in single digits, SHOCKS ME!
There should be no contest on the GOP trouncing DEMS.
If they can keep the virus FEAR alive, mail in ballots will be next. I don’t know for sure but I don’t think Trump can stop a state from requiring that…Understand this is do or die time for all DEMS and they all know it.

UNFORTUNATELY AROUND 48% OF THE U.S. POPULATION THINK THEY ARE OWED A CHECK PAID BY DIRECT DEPOSIT PAID FOR BY REPUBLICANS TODAY! THE TRUE BELIEVERS OF THE RIGHT TAP OUT AT 40% OF THE U.S. POPULATION! 12% OF THE VOTE SWINGS AND IS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY THEIR ECONOMIC CONDITIONS WHICH MAOIST CHINA’S COVID 19 HAS GREATLY AFFECTED! THIS IS THE REALITY GREATLY AGGRAVATED BY PAST AMNESTIES WHERE LARGE NUMBERS OF ILLEGALS AND MUSLIMS WERE ALLOWED U.S. CITIZENSHIP!
THE REALLY ONE THING WE HAVE ON THE RIGHT IS VP DEMENTIA DADDY JOE BRIBE’M/BIDEN WHO INSISTED ON GETTING THE NOMINATION IN THE CROOKED democ-RAT PARTY REGARDLESS OF HIS MENTAL HEALTH! WE REPUBLICANS ARE BEING GIVEN SOME SERIOUS METAPHYSICAL HELP! THANKS TO COVID 19, WE CAN NOW BARELY WIN AND KEEP CONGRESS THE SAME THANKS TO MAOIST CHINA! VOTE AND PRAY, PEOPLE!

“Clinton won the popular vote by 2.1 points.” Yes she did because non-citizens and graveyards across America stood up and did their Dem0ratic duty. Trump should spend more time pitching to that voter base — the bedrock of the Dem0ratic party.

…about a year and a half after that election, 3 State Attorney Generals said they had collectively found 3.1 million illegal votes. And, that was just three states.

Interesting to note, that is the number that the Commie Left in America said Killary won the “popular vote.”

Praise our Founding Fathers and God that we have the Electoral College.
If not, we’d all be wearing Mao jackets now and bowing to Killary.

Ergo the reason the Marxist in our country are trying so hard to get rid of it.

More than ever, EVERY vote counts.

If you are in a blue state, and assume your vote won’t count, IT DOES. Several blue states, in an attempt to subvert the electoral college, have vowed (and even changed state laws) to give all their state’s electoral votes to the national popular vote winner. This makes EVERY vote count.

In fact, it kind of makes your vote count in blue states you don’t reside in.
Say I live in CT. No chance it will be won by Trump. But I vote anyway. So Trump wins the popular vote, and hopefully also the electoral vote. NOW comes the fun part. My vote in CT contributes to states like CA or NY being forced to give Trump all their electoral votes even if he did not win their state or mine.

The very people who started that nonsense will be the ones trying to get the SCOTUS to declare it unconstitutional when it works against them.

THIS IS MORE TRUE THAN WIDELY KNOWN. CLINTON HAD TO LET PRES. TRUMP HAVE THE PRESIDENCY WHEN HE THREATENED TO SUE HER OVER THE RAMPANT AND EGREGIOUS CASES OF VOTER FRAUD THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN ACCUMULATED TO CONTEST HER VOTES IN DIFFERENT REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY! THIS IS WHY PRES TRUMP GOT THE ELECTORAL VOTES OF THE MIDWEST STATES THAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE INCLUDING MI! AFTERWARDS, THE democ-RATS INCLUDING OBAMA/BIDEN IN THE WHITE HOUSE STARTED PLANING THEIR SUBVERSION STRATEGY TO HAVE PRES. TRUMP IMPEACHED! THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO COME OUT! UNFORTUNATELY, ALONG CAME COVID 19 WHICH MESSED UP THE ECONOMY, ETC RIGHT AFTER THE IMPEACHMENT EFFORT FAILED! DON’T TELL ME THERE WASN’T A CONNECTION!

The MSM and almost all the polls will be just as inaccurate as they were when they predict the Hildebeest would trounce Trump. Biden is much more stupid than she. Here is Trump with many Americans believing he is the best POTUS in their lifetimes. On the other team is Biden fondling little girls on camera, engaging in blatant lies and corruption regarding the Ukraine scandal, and making absolutely no sense. I feel sorry for anyone so stupid they would support Biden.

“Poll: Trump SURGES Neck and Neck with Biden, Reports of Trump’s Defeat ‘Greatly Exaggerated”

OH, PLEASSSSSEEE. President Trump is so far ahead of Biteme it’s not even funny.
I’ve learned two things during the lock down.
1. the polls are cooked….to encourage Biteme voters to get out and vote making them think it’s possible to elect whacked out Joe.
Or, to scare lazy Trump voters into making sure they vote.

2. The virus numbers are all false….anyone going near a medical source is immediately tagged that they have Covid whether they do or not.
A guy who died in a motorcycle death was tagged with the false cause being dying of Covid!

Nurses and Doctors calling in to Rush and other shows telling them that their facility automatically says “covid” for anyone coming in with anything else.

Apparently, it gets them ridiculous amounts of money from the “government”….translated: WE THE TAX PAYERS.
I no longer will trust any medical provider….they turn out to be as big a con as the LEFT.

UNFORTUNATELY DEAR LADY, WE AREN’T WAY AHEAD DUE TO THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE U.S. POPULATION AND 60 YEARS OF EDUCATION INSTITUTIONAL INDOCTRINATION OF THE LEFTISTS FOLLOWING THE FRANKFORT SCHOOL FOLLOWING THE IDEAS OF MARXIST, ANTONIO GRAMSCI! ALSO, THE LAME-STREAM MEDIA HAS ITS EFFECT TOO ONLY DIMINISHED BY THE INTERNET SO COULD BE OVERCOME AS THE ONLY POSITIVE OF THE MODERN AGE! YOU ARE TOTALLY CORRECT ON COVID 19! THE MAIN PROBLEM BEHIND ALL OF THIS IS THE GEORGE SOROS-IAN GLOBALIST BANKING CLIQUE BACKED BY MAOIST CHINA IN THE USA!

THE 2020 ELECTION WILL BE CLOSE BUT IT IS A FACT THAT 77% OF GOP FOLKS WILL NOT GIVE OUT THEIR OPINIONS ON POLLS REGARDING POLITICS FOR FEAR OF REPRISAL WHICH IS REAL! ONLY 52% OF democ-RATS FEAR REPRISAL FOR THEIR OPINION/WON’T GIVE OPINIONS! MEANWHILE ONLY 39% OF LEFTISTS FEAR GIVING OUT THEIR OPINIONS! THIS MEANS POLLS ARE SKEWED SUBSTANTIALLY TOWARD democ-RATS/LEFTISTS! ALSO, FOLKS WHO SUPPORT PRES. TRUMP WILL RELIABLY VOTE REPUBLICAN TODAY FOR SENATE AND CONGRESS YET THE POLLING SHOWED DIFFERENTLY WITH democ-RATS DOING BETTER IN SENATE RACES? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? I BET THAT EVEN THE REPUBLICANS WILLING TO GIVE THEIR POSITIVE OPINION ON PRES. TRUMP IN THIS POLL WEREN’T WILLING TO STATE THEIR OPINION FOR SENATE IN COMPARISON TO THE democ-RATS! SUPER SUMMER, RIGHTISTS!
