I don't consider polls to benews, because, when you think about it, they are the ultimate in OPINION reports. Now on to the story. . .
David Knowles, Editor,Yahoo News, May 19, 2020
Just-released polls contain bad news for President Trump and his Senate allies, with Joe Biden expanding the electoral map to states that have long been safe bastions for the Republican Party.
Biden is solidifying his lead over Trump in Arizona, a state not won by a Democrat in a presidential race since Bill Clinton took it in 1996, according to a new survey by OH Predictive Insights. Biden leads Trump by 7 percentage points in Arizona. The poll has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.
The same survey also had bad news for Senate Republican incumbent Martha McSally, who appears to be losing ground in her reelection bid against Democrat Mark Kelly. A former astronaut and the husband of former Rep. Gabby Giffords, Kelly now leads McSally by 13 points. A month earlier, the same poll showed Kelly ahead by 9 points.
In Georgia, Biden leads Trump by a single percentage point, 48 percent to 47 percent, according to a poll conducted by Civiqs/Daily Kos that was released Tuesday and has a margin of error of 3.1 percent.

with California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico. And throw in Colorado for good measure.

It's nice to have early leads in some states, but these will tighten and flip back to Trump on election day.
The code to the WhiteHouse is PA-WI-MI.
