Former President Trump has expanded his lead over President Biden in the aftermath of last week’s debate to 6 points, up from 3 just a week prior, according to a much-anticipated New York Times/Siena College poll.

The poll showed Trump leading Biden with 49 percent support to the incumbent’s 43 percent among likely voters, holding the largest lead he has had in a Times/Siena poll since 2015. Among registered voters, Trump’s lead expands to 8 points, 49 percent to 41 percent.

1. Riiiight

might as well pack it in and coronate Trump, then. We are lost. in case anyone wondered.

[Fiendish Thingy]

2. The deeply flawed poll that has consistently been an outlier compared to all other polls?

Yeah, you can safely ignore that one.

[PortTack]

17. They are totally flawed...I don't pay any attention to any of them

Better indicators…Dems over performing in elections since the midterms, the midterm outcomes…over performing there too.
And the small donor take by Biden following the debate. Ppl don’t donate to a candidate they aren’t planning on voting for.

29. Those are much better indicators, IMO, than polls.

For some polls, there is a deliberate psychology goal of discouraging one side. I remember all the RW polls and some "neutral" media pundits who proclaimed that Obama would lose re-election in 2012.

5. But, but polls are not predictive of anything. Period.

[FrenchCitizen]

7. Polls are bought and paid for propaganda pieces

FACT.

[Silent Type]

8. Thanks, French.

[FrenchCitizen]

10. YW

[FrenchCitizen]

6. BULL. FUCKING. SHIT.

This is a media created propaganda stunt intended to give TFG the victory.

These fake ass pieces of shit yellow journalists and owners want their reich wing tax cuts.

IGNORE THE FUD.

9. Yet once again, I was not polled.

Was anyone else here?

Hmmm….

[MistakenLamb]

18. Thx for the break down!

[Lucky Luciano]

12. KFC we are counting on you to kill the bastard!

[louslobbs]

13. I love these "polls" lol. No one polled me

And everyone I talked to about polling this week….and I’d say that was about 40 or so guaranteed Biden voters….and interestingly, none of them were polled either…..so who are “they” polling?

[kansasobama]

27. Rasmussen polls me a lot

I have fun with it.

[kansasobama]

14. Biden has to be everywhere all the time

It will take a lot to attack the chilling reality in the link. He really has to decide if his health will allow that. That is the issue. He will have to explain to stupid voters. No downtime

He has not done any campaigning for 5 days.

[PortTack]

20. I think his campaign managing team has it covered!

15. "It's a horse race, I'm tellin' ya! Keep tuning in for breathtaking updates!!11!1!1!1112!" LOL.

16. Issues

is what I vote. I will not vote for a convicted felon. I will not vote to take away my rights. I support the Biden/Harris Team all the way.

19. We've still got over 4 months until the general election

[CoopersDad]

21. "Trump has a 0.9% lead based on 776 polls."

And here I thought it was some horrible news.

[former9thward]

24. Those are polls from 18 months ago.

Try the recent polls.

[blue-wave]

23. Bullshit

Stop posting this garbage.

[kansasobama]

25. Trump has widened lead but...

Biden has to up his game. He really has trouble attacking on BS issues with long sentences and for a lengthy period. It is that time . He has to do it. That is the sad fact of our screwed up election and constitution. Constitution allowed Supreme Court to destroy our democracy on July 1st, 2024.

Hopefully, he is pissed and we may see a different Biden. Wounded tiger syndrome.

[Freethinker65]

28. Trump gained on Biden and IF idiot Democrats keep attacking Biden for his age, Democrats deserve to lose.

Please note. Not all Democrats are attacking Biden's age (and fewer are idiots), but honestly concerned about possible health issues. Some however, specifically mention his age and poor polling. WTAF.

Biden's age has nothing to do with it.
