Poll: Biden up 13 points on Trump in Pennsylvania

Former Vice President Joe Biden has a 13-point lead over President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, a new poll released Wednesday shows, revealing Biden’s strength in the battleground commonwealth that Trump carried four years ago.

The Monmouth University poll shows Biden with 53 percent support among Pennsylvania registered voters polled compared to Trump’s 40 percent. Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in Pennsylvania by less than a percentage point in 2016 on his way to an electoral college victory.

Biden, the presumptive Democrative presidential nominee, has played up his local roots as a native of Scranton, Pa., during the campaign and even visited his childhood home last week as he focuses on appearances in the commonwealth. The campaign’s headquarters are based in Philadelphia and Biden has spoken in the Pennsylvania towns of Darby, Dunmore and Lancaster in the past month.

While Trump this morning touted disputed Republican approval ratings showing him with 96 percent support in his own party, the Monmouth poll finds Biden enjoys more party support than the president, at least in Pennsylvania.

isn’t included in that poll, and that trump will win

That is why I prefer likely voter polls verses registered voter polls

We must GOTV as though our survival depends on it, because it does

Monmouth is a respected poll. Joe has the momentum. We just need to keep our foot on the gas. Attack, attack, attack from every quarter. Keep reminding people how bad SOB Trump really is.
