President Donald Trump took the lead in Maine’s second congressional district, according to a poll from the Bangor Daily News, indicating a shift the president’s way in a battleground state that could prove decisive in the presidential election.

Trump’s eight-point lead over his Democrat opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden, is outside the survey’s 6.2 percent margin of error in the second district. The poll finds Trump at 49 percent with Biden at 41 percent.

Would it be possible for Trump to improve his performance in this state by getting three or even the four votes?

He should win the entire state. He gave those huge contracts to the swab company to make the swabs for the tests, opened up the waters for fishing and got the EU to remove tariffs on lobsters. They should love him there.

we’ve also got alot and I mean a lot of leftist liberals that have moved here from outta state.

I will say, you drive outside the city and suburbs and suddenly it’s Trumpville and I mean BIG TIME.

Also, Maine now has rank choice voting. You need to have 51% to be considered ahead.

We lost a good republican congressman because of this new rank choice voting.

Trump and Collins need to get above that margin AND the margin of fraud to be considered in the safe zone.

This does NOT compute with a 16 point national lead for Biden like the CNN trash poll falsely claims.

Trump won the 2nd district by more than 15% in 2016 and only lost the State by less than the votes of the LOSER/SPOILER “EFFING” Gary Johnson!

CLINTON Democrat 357,735 47.8%
Donald J. Trump Republican 335,593 44.9%
Gary Johnson Libertarian 38,105 5.9%
Stein Green 14,251 1.9%

11 points, not 15.

Trump won 51.26% 40.97%

Oh and the October Poll only had Trump ahead by 41-38, so this poll is a BIG improvement over polling at the same time frame in 2016

Knowing how far off these polls are, maybe President Trump takes the state of Maine.
