From the FoxNews article about the poll...

Fox News Poll: Three-point shift in Biden-Trump matchup since May
www.foxnews.com

... President Biden is the frontrunner in a hypothetical matchup against former President Trump for the first time since October, as positive views of the economy inch up " hitting their highest level thus far in the Biden presidency, according to a new Fox News national survey.

Since May, there was a 3-point change in the presidential race. Trump was ahead by 1 point last month, while Biden is up by 2 points today: 50%-48%. That's well within the margin of error. ...


Good point about the margin of error.

Are we doing this again?
I'm glad Biden appears to be up in this poll.
Maybe he'll win the popular vote again.
But will he win the electoral college?

@#3 ... But will he win the electoral college? ...

My rough rule of thumb is that a candidate needs a 10% advantage in general election polls to get an electoral college win. Even then, a win is likely, but not assured.


We are no where near that 10% at this point. Indeed, the polls are still wallowing in the margin of error.

Polls can say whatever the pollsters want them to say but I pray that most voters prompted by his loss in the 2020understand that one candidate believes in demovracy and will respect the outcome of the election while the other ct and will not and he has already proven he does not and that he will try to undermine our democracy if he loses. After the attempted coup on Jan. 6 coup, prompted by his election loss in 2020, we ALL know that is true; only liars will deny it! Donald Trump absolutely will try to destroy our demovrscy if he loses again; Putin has convinced him that he could be our dictator!
So I ask all Trump supporters to be honest, at least with themselves,...do you actually want to live in a dictatorship? It's a mistake you might have to live with for the rest of your lives, or worse, for the rest of your children's lives....Dom Jr. our next dictator? Is that what you fools want?

" Polls can say whatever the pollsters want them to say"

Here's my theory:

One of the ways Putin is mucking with the election is polls. The goal is to overload social media with bots and fake polls, all reinforcing the inevitable Trump win to his bubble.

When Biden wins (due in part to PO'd women), MAGA will be all the more incensed.

I believe Biden has a popular vote lead, the question is what is going on in key states.

Question....does it matter to Republicabs, MAGts and NAZIs if the election process is fair or is victory for your side the only important thing? In other words; will you support the outcome if ztrump loses.....AGAIN???? oR will you try to overthrow the government AGAIN???? I'd just like to know what to expect.

Now, another question and one the crooked Supreme Court is expected to rule on eventually If the sitting President tries to steal the election, that he knows he lost, is he immune from prosecution? Before you answer consider it if it were a Demovrat?

Fake electors scabdal? How many Republicans actually really know what crime was committed or why people should go to prison for it? And the few who do? They're just sorry they didn't pull it off!

And meanwhile the Fox News Army of liars went 24/7 convincing their vast audience of idiots that the election was stolen by Democrats through mail in ballots and voting machine manipulations, etc. even as they knew who really tried to steal the election and how they tried to steal it. And many posters here still haven't figured that out! Because they don't want to; they actually prefer to believe that the election was stolen from Donald Trump when, the reality is, Donald Trump tried his best to steal it from Joe Biden. Hell if I was a Republican I might ignore the attempted theft but not the total incompetence displayed by the moerons on Team Trump trying to do it.

Trump has raised more money than President Biden. But then President Biden doesn't have all those millions of dollars in lawyer fees and judgements against him.

And President Biden doesn't have to pay a dime to fly anywhere he wants to go in a 757 either.

And President Biden has a White House full of lawyers for advice, not to mention the Department of Justice, including the FBI, and State Attorney Generals to chase down Trump's co-defendants ~ including Trump, Trump Org and Trump's two sons.

In short, the money Trump raises is money already spent.

I read a couple months ago that Trump is paying a total of 55 lawyers in cases all across the country. The number has probably gone up since then.
