Trump, Ernst take leads over Dem challengers in Iowa poll
Fox News ^ | 11.01.2020 | Dom Calicchio

Just days before Election Day, both President Trump and U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst have pulled ahead of their Democratic challengers in the assessment of Iowa voters, a new poll shows.

Trump now leads Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in the Hawkeye State by 7 percentage points, 48%-41%, according to the latest Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa poll, the newspaper reported Saturday.

In the previous poll in September, Trump and Biden were tied, each drawing support from 47% of voters, the report said.

The latest results followed a visit to Iowa by the president in mid-October, the Register reported, noting that Trump planned to return to the state Sunday with a campaign stop in Dubuque.

“Nobody’s going to do for Iowa what I did for Iowa,” the president told a rally crowd there last month, tailoring his message to the state’s corn growers, among others.

“I saved ethanol. Ethanol is safe,” Trump added, referring to the corn-based automotive fuel that helps drive the state’s economy.

Biden most recently appeared in Iowa on Friday, holding a drive-in rally in Des Moines.

“I'll work as hard for those who don't support me as those who do,” the former vice president told rally attendees. “In my administration, there will be no red states or blue states, just the United States of America.”

Trump supporters said his proposals on the U.S. economy and taxes were the key factor in their decision to support the president while Biden backers said they were drawn by what they viewed as the Democrat’s ability to restore what’s good about America, the Register reported.

Just days before the election President Trump pulls ahead of Biden by 7 points? The polling organizations want to say, “we got it right.” My take is the polling organizations failed in their attempt to get President Trump’s voters to stay home.

He is going to try one last time to use that folksy, come on guys BS to persuade people that Donald Trump is a charlatan (which is what he called the President the other day) who is stealing the election.

Apparently, the geniuses running his campaign think everyone will stop what they’re doing on Tuesday to listen to an address from their near 80-year old, cognitively impaired, doddering fool candidate.

The poll has an eleven percent undecided figure in the presidential match-up and a twelve percent undecided figure in the senate race. In 2016 undecideds broke heavily for Trump. Will they do the same this time?

I think you have two. Regardless of who wins the losing side will not accept the results as legitimate.

Many already see the writing on the wall.

And it sucks.

And while we are slaughtering each other, soros will be laughing...and dems in their palaces...

But after a few of them got shot, they didn’t come back with an armed militia the next day.

Which tells me they don’t want to die..just burn places with impunity

He will tell people to sit tight and not accept the results until all of the ballot box stuffing has finished.
