Didn’t this poll have the same 4 point lead for Biden a couple of weeks ago?

Polls are BS and I won’t believe any of them. Still, it would be nice to hear The Left’s reaction to this poll.

“There is ALWAYS bias. You cannot control for all ...”

And there’s the matter of who paid for the poll.

8 Jul: LA Times: As voting rolls plunge amid pandemic, progressives try to reinvent the registration drive
by Evan Halper
WASHINGTON — While some progressives are bullish about the outlook for the November election, Tatenda Musapatike surveys the political landscape and sees masses of unregistered voters who were supposed to be on the rolls by now, but for the pandemic.
It is making her increasingly anxious, and she is not alone.
“It is hard to overstate just how underwater voter registration is,” said Musapatike, senior director of campaigns at Acronym, a progressive group focused on digital strategy...

Not even 200,000 people were registered in May, compared with nearly 1.5 million in May of 2016, according to the Democratic data analysis firm TargetSmart.
Those early numbers also showed people of color and voters under 40 making up a smaller share of new voters in April and May than previously...

And the hurdles some states have created to getting a vote-by-mail ballot are adding to the challenge, even as the pandemic pushes voting in that direction...

GAHeel, can you please post a link or at least a little more info to the great poll you cited.

Just did a couple of google searches and cannot trace that one yet.

I can’t find it now, but the Guardian has poll that has Trump leading in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Penn.
