Washington (AFP) - A nationwide Fox News poll released Sunday shows President Donald Trump trailing former vice president Joe Biden and no fewer than four other Democratic contenders as early campaigning for the 2020 election begins to gain steam.
A separate survey of battleground states, by CBS, shows Democrats strongly favor Biden as the candidate most likely to beat Trump in next year's elections.
The Fox poll showed Biden leading Trump by 49 percent to 39 percent among all registered voters nationwide, while Senator Bernie Sanders held nearly the same advantage over the president, at 49 percent to 40 percent.
Holding edges of 1 or 2 points over Trump -- albeit within the poll's 3-point margin of error -- were Senators Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, as well as Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana.
The polling comes more than 500 days before the November 3, 2020 election, an eternity in the political world. One widely viewed tweet this week shows five presidential candidates in recent decades who trailed at this point in their campaigns -- including Trump -- but who went on to win.

This is terribly worrying news.
Is there ANY path to 270 electoral votes for Trump?
That really is the best way to put it.
The modern coastal media has gone from workaday-evil to full-blown Antichrist.
TRUMP WILL NEVER BE THE NOMINEE!!
I don’t believe Kamala Harris is leading Trump, even this early. No one likes her.
Please remember it was Fox that admittedly tried to stop Trump with Meghan Kelly at the Fox debate.
“Trump will never be president.”
Sure, and I’m the queen of England.
Again.

Weren’t they predicting President Hart or President Mondale back in about this time in 1983 or even early 1984?
Fiddle. Left wing liberal polls.
The Democrats sure better nominate Biden.
Biden is a LOSER pedophile ignoramus. Wait until Trump is done with him. He’ll be a whimpering sack of excrement, and everyone will be running away.
NO PATH TO VICTORY REDUX
Willie Brown does...
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! Thanks, needed a laugh.
There will never be a poll showing Trump in the lead until midnight of the election.
Oh, please! Just knock it off. Fox News has nothing to to with the Antichrist. You’re projecting.
Stop making Christians look stupid.
I think what everyone here may be leaving out is the `fear factor’ when it comes to polling. This is already skewing polls badly and will get only worse closer to Election 2020.
Works like this: “Are you going to vote for Trump in 2020?” is as loaded a question as “Do you own guns, and if so, how many?” An affirmative answer to either paints a target on you, your family, and maybe even your house.
Doxxing is going to be viciously utilized against Deplorables who voted for PDJT and intend to do so again. That anonymous interrogator polling you over the phone can and will use poll results to `out’ those deemed not supportive of the Democrat candidate.
Therefore, those polled respond in their own interest & safety. In other words, they lie to pollsters.
Am I wrong?
However, those same polls skewed heavily in favor of the Democrats may also create smugness & a false sense of security in DNC headquarters.
Thoughts are welcome.
Somebody is trying to sell bridges again
The Fox News poll was one of the least reliable in 2016.
