If the 2020 presidential election were held today, for whom would you vote if the candidates were Joe Biden, the Democrat, and Donald Trump, the Republican?
Biden - 49% Trump - 44% Undecided - 7%

Joe needs a BLM member for VP
“This poll is not only old, its pre Floyd. Pest of a time waster.”
Perhaps you missed the part in my post where I typed:
“Of course, these numbers were before the George Floyd rioting and protests.”
It’s not like I posted a poll from three months ago. Give it a rest and go outside and yell at the neighbor kids for walking on your lawn.
joe biden got more delegates for president than trump did in 1988
just sayin.
Neighbor kids walking on my lawn do not waste my time. I welcome them
In my opinion, when both candidates are extremely well-known, and both are below 50%, the race is really a toss-up at best.
When there is a fairly unknown challenger, under-50 for the incumbent is considered bad, because the undecideds are waiting to learn something, and generally already ‘know’ the incumbent, so they tend to break for the challenger.
But with Biden being a household name, nobody is really waiting to “learn more” about either candidate. Certainly, the undecideds are not going to get MORE NEGATIVE NEWS about Trump. The negative is built in. Whereas they well could be waiting to see if Biden can stand up and talk for more than 5 minutes without saying stupid things.
So, unless you think that October could be worse than the last 3 months, all the things that would “decide” for trump should be positive things. And Biden has nothing positive to push his numbers, unless he manages to actually do a convention speech standing up to cheering crowds, which he won’t because they are not even doing a convention.
I suppose if he picked the perfect VP he might get a bump, but I cannot imagine any of the picks he is looking at now doing more than dividing the democrats.
None of his candidates are former governors, or people with executive experience, and with everybody assuming he will go away within the first term, that will be a critical factor.
I think Ron Kind is probably safe. Like him or not, he does a good job of constituent services.
I think the best chance for an upper Midwestern pick-up would be Minnesota’s 7th District.

I’ve donated to her and I don’t live in her district. She’s good.
Since both people are totally known, undecideds will go to Trump. Trump supporters are afraid to put Trump signs in their yards - and those ‘new’ to our movement - sure aren’t going to admit to backing Trump.
Joey Fingers leading in Minnesota by just 5 and under 50? In Minnesota? In a Red Star poll? with 7% “undecided?” REALLY? I smell Bradley affect. Before the campaign has even started? I’ll take that.
All polls are BS, but it is interesting that I never saw this poll. I guess President Trump did too well in this poll.
I had an apartment there 40 years ago. It was called St. Jewish Park then. It still is today.
Ive been a MN resident most of my life, and have been interested in politics since JFK won the state.
I can honestly say I dont recall a Star-Tribune/Minnesota Poll that showed any Republican leading in any race at any time.
If they ever call me, I’d say “Biden, of course, gotta save the country”. When I go to vote, forgetaboutit, it will be Trump! He’s going to need a bull dozzer to get the addition crap they are going to throw at him. DC is all about making $$$$, its lobbying and inside trading to make our representatives rich. Do you really think its about the people? BS! They all have money ink on their hands. When its time to vote, think about who you are supporting. LOL, Anyone wanna bet on AOC’s current net worth?
Well, then, this poll is well within the margin for error - there seem to be a lot of errors made in the collection of the raw data.
“Why are you posting an old poll?”
Yeah, and why is he posting a BULLSHIRT poll anyway?
POLLS LIE. POLLS are FAKE. Polls are NOT scientific.
Polls are used (in this case) to try and hurt Trump’s reelection bid.
Why would this guy post this old fake poll unless he secretly or not so secretly wants to hurt Trump.
FORGET POLLS. They are nothing but a tool of the left.
I know it’s cliche, but the only polls that count are on election day. Just ask President Hillary.
Has Biden secured the fireworks barge yet?
Do you know what the best and worst jobs are in Minnesota right now? Realestate Broker! Best because a lot of people selling. Worst because nobody is buying.
As a Minnesota raised old goat with a gorgeous Minnesota born and raised wife, i share your opinion of the current state of the place. We both still have family in the Western part of Minnesota but haven’t lived there for 50 years. It was once a great place to grow up. Not going back but to attend funerals, unfortunately.
Unlikely to be that big a win in MN
