Poll: Trump Leads Among Independent Voters in Head-to-Head with Biden
Breitbart ^ | 30 Jun 2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Former President Donald Trump is leading among independent voters in a potential head-to-head matchup against President Biden, the latest survey from The Economist/YouGov found.

The survey asked respondents who they would vote for if the election were held today if the choices were between Trump and Biden.

In that scenario, Trump takes a four point lead among registered voters, garnering 44 percent to Biden’s 40 percent support.

Predictably, most Democrats, 78 percent, chose Biden and most Republicans, 82 percent, chose Trump. However, Trump takes a strong lead among independent voters, specifically, besting Biden by ten points, or 38 percent to Biden’s 28 percent.

Another 21 percent of independents said they would not vote, followed by seven percent who said “other” and six percent who said they are unsure.

The survey also asked respondents to reveal who they believe would win the presidential election between Biden and Trump, regardless of their personal preference. In this case, 41 percent of registered voters said Biden would win, compared to 40 percent who said Trump. Another 19 percent remain unsure.

Republicans remain slightly more confident in Trump than Democrats are in Biden, as 73 percent of Republicans said Trump would win. Seventy-one percent said the same of the 80-year-old president.

Independents also remain more confident in Trump, as 38 percent said Trump would win. Thirty-one percent of independents chose Biden, and another 31 percent said they are not sure.

The survey was taken June 24-27, 2023, among 1,500 U.S. citizens. Notably, it also found Trump with a double-digit lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in a GOP primary head-to-head matchup, leading him 52 percent to 25 percent among Republicans.

The survey coincides with a recent Quinnipiac survey focusing on Pennsylvania, which found Trump edging out Biden in the key swing state as well

This is a poll of voters.

A poll of ballots comes up with the opposite results. Go figure...

Clint Eastwood’s RNC 2012 speech is pure gold for today. He said jokingly that Biden was the intellect of the Democrat party a smile with a body behind it. The speech is really worth a replay it is pure genius.

To save this world from nuclear war we need more Dirty Harry and less Lineus.

Polls a year ahead of the general election campaign are push polls. I’d be careful about believing them and act not celebritory but act like ww have a massive amount of work to do.

As long as cheat-by-mail-in ballots are allowed, polls are meaningless. Fake polls or real polls; it will make no difference when the counting is stopped on election night and a week later enough cheat-by-mail-in ballots are 'counted' to put the Democrat ahead.

If you've been paying attention, you saw in Kari Lake's legal challenge what passes for signature verification is a goon at a computer taking one second to click 'next' without scrolling down to actually compare the ballot signature with the one on file. They stole it in broad daylight from Kari, just like they did Trump, and just like they will in 2024.

LOL! One has to win the primaries first and with the way his campaign is going, he'll implode somewhere over South Carolina.

The LGBTQ commercial the campaign put out proves how incapable they are in putting on a serious campaign. No wonder Ron needed Trump's support to become governor.

But Meatball fans said Trump could not win Independents.
He can and he is.

this is nice but they are going to need to run the numbers much higher to overcome democrat fraud and illegal guest voters.

Quinnipiac is not a great pollster. Truth is we have no idea what’s going to unfold through Nov 2024. I am ready to be over with it.

DeSantis is no longer a viable alternative candidate for me.

The biggest question is how is he doing on the dead and empty lot voters?

Polling registered voters is more unreliable than polling likely voters.
