CBS News Battleground Tracker: National, Wisconsin contests steady amid protests; more think Biden trying to calm situation
CBS News ^ | 9/6/20 | ANTHONY SALVANTO, JENNIFER DE PINTO, FRED BACKUS, KABIR KHANNA AND ELENA COX

The presidential horse race remains unchanged by recent protests — Joe Biden still leads President Trump by the same margins nationally and in the battleground state of Wisconsin.

Here's why: though neither candidate gets rave reviews for what they've said about the demonstrations, Biden is seen by more as trying to calm the situation, while the president is perceived by slightly more as encouraging fighting, rather than calming things down. And the larger notion that violence could come to "the suburbs" finds little concern among those who actually reside in the suburbs.

Moreover, it's also about the approach to those protests: by more than two to one, voters feel the way to end the them is to make police reforms and address discrimination, not to use law enforcement to punish protesters. Even the president's own backers aren't overly convinced the latter approach is better.

I don't want to believe this, but I also know that Wisconsin now has radical Democrat leadership in place of sane GOP control, so I am thinking maybe . . .

I believe this poll as much as all the 2016 polls that had Hillary winning by a landslide. The riots are hurting the rats. That’s why the suck ass news put this fake poll out. They must have polled their fake news employees.

But look at this:

Being ahead nationally means NOTHING in a race among the separate states.

So what if more people in California, Illinois, Massachusetts and New York are for Biden?

Remember the Atlantic.

They'll do and say ANYTHING.

I think pretty much everybody knows that the rioters who can vote are all Biden voters.

Taking one of the three daily naps, smelling of tapioca, isn’t exactly ‘calming the situation’.

Sorry but I resent the 50% of the American people who just go along with destroying MY country where I was born.

I believe the general outline of this kind of poll. I know CA,NY,OR,WA,MA account for the margin (and not the Electoral College which does count) but there is still something broadly shown in the polls. People stupidly don’t blame the Dems for the rioting planned by the Dems. The trashy, scum Americans just want to give “socialism” a try.

Screw them.

I make exceptions for my wife, myself and all FReepers and President Trump and his support and family.

Everyone else get off of my lawn.

Heard zuckerberg is pouring 250 million in WI to get the vote out!! THEY ARE GOING TO STEAL THIS ELECTION ONE WAY OR THE OTHER!! I'm beginning to realize and fear that Trump doesn't have a ball of a chance against the MASSIVE voter fraud that is going to make our heads spin....NOT A CHANCE!! BILLIONAIRES and ALL THE SOCIAL corrupt corporations flooding this election with all sorts of money, funding the chaos fraud etc. is too grand for Trump to overcome! But if he wins decisively I for one will be the first one to admit it and eat the biggest crow or two found on the face of this earth! Like Huckabee said the Trump campaign is being set up by the Hiden people!! ☹️

That’s a lie right there, I don’t care who you are.

we’re going to see of people actually think the Democrats, where all this violence is being allowed and encouraged to take place, should lead this country.

There were riots under Obama too, and it just keeps getting worse.

Giving in to domestic terrorists are going to slow the down, huh? Well if people vote for the dems after what they’ve promoted and allowed to happen in the cities across this country, they’re not going to stop if hey win, it’ll get worse until nothing is left of us.
