ABC News/Washington Post poll: Biden leads Trump by 10 points nationally - 54-44




Biden's lead does drop to 49-43 when third party candidates are added. But I am okay with that. I do not believe the third parties will get near that level of support. Still, Biden clearly takes the biggest hit, losing five points while Trump only loses one.

I think that, somehow, there will not be much problem of overconfidence.

I think trump supporters are under estimated. They are everywhere. More IMO then 2016.

I hope Bernie people help us, but I’m not holding my breathe.

where I work it is almost the opposite.

I might add that where I live, the Biden signs that were popping up have a bad habit of disappearing. I wonder why.

...Republicans, Russians, and the online rightwing leftists out there wouldn't be shitting on all things Democratic in order to depress our vote, which is ACTUALLY what cost us the election in 2016 -- not """overconfidence."""

It’s not definitive, nor is it intended to be. I don’t know why that’s so threatening to some folks in the thread.

We should be able to walk and chew gum at the same time.

It's good that Biden has a substantial lead, but something is terribly wrong in this country when a racist pathological liar garners double digit support.

9% would still be appalling, but 44%?

Even with a sweeping victory for Democrats, the road ahead is fraught with peril.

Lock him up.
