Biden leads Trump by 6 points in first post-announcement poll

Joe Biden leads President Trump by six points, according to the first poll published after the former vice president officially announced his candidacy Thursday.

The April 25-26 Hill-HarrisX survey of 1,000 registered voters found that 43 percent said they would choose Biden while 37 percent said they would pick Trump. Fifteen percent of respondents said they were unsure and 5 percent said they would vote for another candidate.



Biden's 6-point lead was outside the poll's 3.1 percent sampling margin of error.

The former vice president has been consistently competitive with Trump in public opinion surveys for several months before he officially declared his intention to become the Democratic Party's nominee.

We need a strong Dem who can appeal to independents and moderates. That candidate is Biden. In fact Biden running with Harris would be an excellent ticket. Go Joe!!!!

Wisconsin and Michigan now have Democratic governors, so I think statewide voting bodes well for a strong Democratic Presidential candidate.

Who is not a racist. I really think Biden can real beat up (literally) fat Donnie and make him lose it in the next few months. I plan to send him some money tonight.
