Poll: Biden remains ahead of Trump nationally before conventions begin

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump continues to trail Democratic challenger Joe Biden nationally as more than 60 percent of voters say America’s response to the coronavirus has been unsuccessful and just one-in-five believe the U.S. economy is on solid footing.

Those are the major findings from the latest national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, which was conducted during the ongoing pandemic that has killed more than approximately 170,000 Americans and as the presidential race enters a new phase, with the party conventions beginning on Monday just days after Biden's selection of Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., as his running mate.

According to the survey, Biden leads Trump nationally by 9 points among registered voters, 50 percent to 41 percent, and the former vice president holds double-digit advantages over Trump on the coronavirus, immigration, health care, race relations and uniting the country.



What’s more, the poll shows Harris with a higher net personal rating than either Trump or Biden possess.

But, it’s more important that he’s ahead in WI, MI, PA, FL, NC and AZ. That’s where the election is going to be called.
