A new NYTimes poll showed that Donald Trump is leading by margins of at least three to ten percentage points in five of six swing states.
The Republican frontrunner is ahead with the electorate in Nevada, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, and Pennsylvania, the New York Times and Siena College poll reveals.
President Biden is leading by two points in Wisconsin where Trump appears to be snapping at his heels.
The survey revealed that two-thirds of voters believe the US is moving in the wrong direction under Biden with many criticizing the effectiveness of his coalition with Kamala Harris and his handling of economic issues.
Only 37 percent of the participants trusted Biden with the economy while 59 percent favored Trump for the economic matters.
The statistics showed young voters favoring Biden by a single percentage point; Black voters are shifting to Trump’s side with 22 percent recently supporting the former president.
The NYTimes deemed the flip toward Trump as a “level unseen in presidential politics for a Republican in modern times.”
