Poll Shows Biden Up in New Battleground Georgia: Campaign Update

Source: The Hill

Former Vice President Joe Biden has gained the edge over President Trump in Georgia, according to a new Monmouth University poll that shows the Democratic presidential nominee with a 5-point lead in the state.

With less than a week to go before Election Day, the poll shows Biden garnering 50 percent support among registered voters in the Peach State, while Trump trails at 45 percent. Biden's support remains unchanged under different likely voter turnout models, while Trump's ticks up to 46 percent in a high-turnout model and 48 percent in a low-turnout model.

The poll shows a slight upward movement for Biden since a Monmouth poll released in September found him notching 46 percent support in Georgia to Trump's 47 percent.

Biden's current lead is not statistically significant, and he now faces the challenge of turning out less engaged voters who haven't yet cast their ballots. But the poll suggests that the former vice president has the momentum in Georgia heading into the final days of the campaign.

I’m sure internal polling was showing knock off potential there.
