The first week of polls conducted primarily after President Donald Trump contracted COVID-19, generally did not offer much to bolster the president's reelection hopes.
Biden continued to lead Trump in 10 of 11 swing states (though Georgia is a virtual tie) – and he expanded his lead in seven of those states, including big gains in Florida, Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Nationally, Biden surged 2 percentage points to a more than 10-point lead, according to the USA TODAY average of averages, which is based on the polling averages calculated by RealClearPolitics and FiveThirtyEight.
By comparison, 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton's lead between the two polling averages was 6.2 points at this point four years ago.
National average
USA TODAY average of averages: Biden 52.1%, Trump 42.0% (Biden +10.1)
