A new poll shows that in key swing counties that will decide the Electoral College winner in the upcoming general election, former Vice President Joe Biden is trouncing Donald Trump.
According to the latest Monmouth University poll, the overall national race between Biden and Trump is tight, with the former VP leading Trump 48 percent to 45 percent.
But for the president, a more troubling piece of data from the survey is that Biden leads by a whopping nine percentage points in 300 swing counties across America.
According to Monmouth, “In approximately 300 ‘swing’ counties where the margin of victory was less than ten points for either candidate – accounting for about one-fifth of the total U.S. electorate – 50% back Biden compared with 41% who support Trump.”
“The poll results suggest Biden may actually be starting out with an advantage in crucial swing areas of the country,” he added.
At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how large or small Biden’s national popular vote margin is as long as he performs well in regions of the country that decide the Electoral College winner.
Polling shows that – at least right now – the former vice president appears to be doing just that.
