US election poll: Trump BEATING Biden despite being hospitalised with covid – EXCLUSIVE
Express ^ | Oct 3 | By DAVID MADDOX

Posted on 10/03/2020 3:52:23 PM PDT by RandFan

The monthly Democracy Institute Sunday Express poll for the Presidential election shows that Mr Trump is still on course for victory with 46 percent of the popular support compared to his Democrat rival Joe Biden’s 45 percent.

However, his overall lead has dropped by two points since the last poll in September.

The poll was completed after the news broke that President Trump and his wife Melania have been infected by Covid-19.

But 68 percent said the illness would not affect their vote while 19 percent said they were “more likely” to support Trump and only 13 percent “less likely”.

Almost two thirds said they felt sympathy and concern for the President while 38 percent said him getting the disease was “karma” in an indication of the current divisive nature of US politics.

Crucially, Mr Trump’s lead in key swing states including Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin remains at 4 percent by 47 percent 43 percent.

This gives a projected Electoral College split of 320 to Trump and 218 to Biden.

While other polls have Biden ahead, the Democracy Institute, which correctly predicted Brexit and Trump’s win in 2016, only considers people who identify as “likely voters” rather than all registered voters and also asks about the so called shy vote.

This shows that 77 percent of Trump supporters would not admit it to friends or family members.

“YES! Turnout and ground game is always the key.”

Right and if ground game increases turnout (which is the entire reason for the ground game) then it over already because Trump has a massive ground game while Biden has none at all.

You said,”I never heard of this poll”.

It’s a Zogby Poll.

You're confused.

According to the latest monthly Democracy Institute (DI)/ Sunday Express poll President Trump has 48 percent of the popular support over former Vice President Biden’s 45 percent.

We need a poll of maybe 40 states, leaving out CA, NY, MA, IL, CT, HI, OR, and Washington State. These leftist states inflate the Biden totals.

One would think that Portlannd was give Trump far more than the 18 percent he got in 2016 considering all of the rioting.

“I saw a Biden ad highlighting his efforts to equip forces in Iraq with MRAPs. A very effective ad....”

Great and Trump actually brought the troops home.

What do you believe is a better idea?

I confused the Democracy Institute Poll with the Zogby Poll.

My apologies for the mistake.

FBI, CIA, dead A. Scalia, dead DNC staffer who was exposing DNC corruption......and now President Trump and about a dozen white house workers who worked closely with the president are simultaneously infected with cover. What a coincidence. Murder, attempted murder? Adulterated nasal swabs? Lots to consider.
