Trump's still losing big -- and four other takeaways from post-convention polls
Politico
President Donald Trump and Joe Biden have emerged from the national party conventions roughly where they were before: with Biden holding a significant lead, though his advantage is far from secure.
A glut of new national and state polling out since the Republican National Convention ended last week shows either a small bump for Trump or no bounce at all. The net result: Biden still holds a high-single-digit lead nationally, along with a smaller-but-consistent advantage in the battleground states. Bidens lead over Trump is large in some swing-state polls, while others show Trump still behind but within striking distance.
The new polls reflect not only the parties conventions but the Trump campaigns efforts to focus the campaign on crime and justice and away from the coronavirus pandemic. But the surveys show that Trumps law and order posture isnt currently a winning issue for the president though his poll numbers on that issue are stronger than his poor ratings for handling the governments response to the virus.
