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.

At this point they just want another train wreck meltdown on Election Day like in 2016 to get a ratings spike

I think they are making the case that any trump victory is illegitimate because the polls were so big for Biden

A total of 1,205 adults were interviewed by telephone nationwide by live interviewers calling both landline and cell phones. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish. Among the entire sample, 33% described themselves as Democrats, 28% described themselves as Republicans, and 39% described themselves as independents or members of another party.

The far left media creates modern polls to try and sway opinions and votes, not as factual information. They have less basis in reality than the fairy tales I used to read to my kids.

Best to see them for what they are and ignore them as garbage propaganda.

+16 by any candidate means winning 45+ states and possibly all 50.

This country is far too polarized for that to happen, short of massive voter fraud.

Yep. The pollsters said months ago that they're polling urban areas far more this time than in 2016, because they expect (no reason why given) the rural vote will be down substantially in 2020.

And don't forget, CNN had a poll in late October, 2016 that had Hillary up by 12.

Among the entire sample, 33% described themselves as Democrats, 28% described themselves as Republicans, and 39% described themselves as independents or members of another party. All respondents were asked questions concerning basic demographics, and the entire sample was weighted to reflect national Census figures for gender, race, age, education, region of country, and telephone usage.

P1. Suppose that the presidential election were being held today and you had to choose between Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party's candidates, and Donald Trump and Mike Pence as the Republican Party's candidates. Who would you be more likely to vote for?

As of today, do you lean more toward...

People of color: Biden 72% Trump 25%

They are overdoing it. People are going to stay home that would otherwise vote for Biden.
