Each side in today’s often-angry political debate over the upcoming presidential election seems convinced that its candidate has a clear advantage. But, as of now, neither President Joe Biden nor former President Donald Trump has an obvious edge in the popular vote as we enter the final eight months of the 2024 election season, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
Despite being widely criticized for his lackluster campaign and showing continuing signs of age-related mental impairment, Biden holds a slender 43% to 42% lead over Trump. The online national poll of 1,246 registered voters was taken

An online poll is worth as much as a poll of the vagrants on the streets of Los Angeles or any other sewer city.

More of the "Not-Worth-Spit" polls paid for by the DNC to keep their lemmings chasing that laser-pointer.
The only Poll that matters is the one held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. Eagles Up!

Beware of the vote counters in the key states where democrats are in control, or in Georgia where the republican governor is a certified RINO.
The votes that matter are the ones counted after midnight in those suspect states.

I do NOT believe it is even close, much less neck and neck! As much as the "polls" get it wrong sometimes, still too many show Biden in the toilet on just about everything that matters, so unless they are already counting fraudulent votes there is no way Biden is that close to Trump. Sounds more like wishful thinking of a Dem!

We MUST remember that November's election is JUST for the Presidency. If we elect Trump but fail to gain both Houses of Congress we will have failed. DJT will have a gun without a full clip. No - our efforts must be GOP vs the Dims - vigorously.

Oh come on, with all the polls showing most people dislike almost everything Biden has done, how can Biden vs. Trump be a 50/50 race?

I refuse to believe that that many people would vote for Grampy Joe.

Ref: #5. You must be talking about a FAIR election. If there is such a thing anymore.

If true, perhaps we don't just need paper ballots and voter ID to vote, perhaps we need to pass a test on cognitive ability, because it is quite obvious Democrat voters have some severe mental impairments of their own.

An anonymous poll conducted on a tiny fraction of one percent of the population? C'mon man, you got to be joking.
The "age-related mental impairment" began on Joe's first birthday. IOW, he is a born loser.

We've seen the most transparently dishonest legal assertions made to keep Trump off of the ballot. No one in a position of authority could possibly believe that a state judge or a state official could decide who gets to run for president. Such an actor could not possibly be insulated from the advice that the legal proposition is absurd or at least too controversial to assert.
If they'll do that in the open, they'll cheat on the ballot counting in secret.

NO, they are not! Stop pushing these faux, bogus 'polls', whose purpose is not to inform but to mislead and mis track.

It doesn't matter if Trump wins enough electors on election day. When congress counts the electors on Jan 6 2025 many will change their vote just like Trump wanted them to do on Jan 6 2021 and Biden will be pronounced the winner. And the news media will be filled with why it was fine to do that in 2025 but not in 2021.

Just stop it already. Constitutionally there is no such thing as the popular vote for President. It's the Electoral College that decides things, so caterwauling about the popular vote is a moot point.

Neck and neck means Trump is leading by a lot.

One wonders how different the polls would be if Trump supporters actually participated in the polling or those that do, simple lie and say Diaper Joe just to avoid reprisal from Diaper Joe's Dept of Just-Us.

The thief-in-chief, the cadaver who didn't campaign, did not get 81 million votes, but the lies continue.

Basically, it's a race to the bottom. Literally, Joe Biden has nothing to run on, so he has to make Trump look worse than him. That's his entire strategy. Voting for Joe Biden means turning a blind eye to many things: Joe's senility, all the inflation, all the tyranny, all the anti-US policies, all the corruption, and all the ignorance and stupidity. At least Trump offers a real alternative, but our media screams hysterically 'TRUMP BADD!!!!', and people believe it.
As for these nationwide polls, I don't follow them anymore. Guaranteed the Democrats aren't. They are going state by state. Which states they have in the bag, and which states they need to reach 270 electoral votes. They just need to win a state by 0.1% (or less) to get its electoral votes.

The popular vote is not where elections are decided. Densely populated states overwhelmingly vote democrat. The election is decided in 6 states.

Winning hte popular vote means NOTHING at all. A candidate must win the Electoral College votes.

All that counts is winning the Electoral votes. Currently that is 270. That is the goal. That is the target. Nothing else matters.

Been saying all along it's not going to matter, since we're no longer dealing with honest brokers. The truth is these people are Evil, vicious liars who will do anything and stop at nothing to retain power in 2024, just as they did by "winning" it through overt fraud in 2020. MAGA Vet - FJB
