President Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden are statistically tied in Minnesota, according to a new poll.

The latest survey from the Trafalgar Group finds Biden at 46.9 percent and Trump at 46.5 percent. Libertarian Party candidate Jo Jorgensen gets 3.7 percent support, while 1.7 percent are undecided and 1.2 percent said they'd support someone else.

The Trafalgar Group's surveys have been showing a tighter race in the battlegrounds than other pollsters have found.

The outlet weights its polls to account for a "social desirability bias," or the so-called shy Trump voters who are embarrassed to tell pollsters they support his candidacy. In 2016, Trafalgar was the only polling outlet to show Trump leading in Michigan heading into Election Day...

The latest survey from the Trafalgar Group finds Biden at 46.9 percent and Trump at 46.5 percent.

Translation: Trump's easily at over 55 percent, with Sleepy Joe a distant second. The Libertarian candidate is steeling votes from Lunch Bucket.

President Trump can win here. The democrats have shown how weak they are while they let BurnLootMurder do whatever they want.

This is close to correct. It means Trump is up in MN, but with all the shy Trump voters, we won’t know by how much til election day.

Trump himself has said he would win MN.

I wonder if Trump is going to be that good deal more competitive in Maine, New Hampshire, Nevada, and even Oregon (but Portland alone probably steals that from him again)?

But maybe he has 48 to 46

There is still a lot of leftish Farmer Labor party Sentiment in Minnesota but one thing that’s sometimes overlooked is the regard for moral principles In much of the population. Both are heritages of the upper northwest band both are waning true enough. But I believe pdjt can do well after the Democratic Party street gangster riots —

A tie in any presidential poll means Trump really has at least 55% of the vote. If he’s up in Minnesota, then he’s up in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
