CNN — With presidential primaries underway and a 2020 general election rematch seemingly the most likely outcome, a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows former President Donald Trump narrowly ahead of President Joe Biden in what’s shaping up to be a close contest nationally.

The poll highlights voters’ conflicted feelings about the leading candidates. Broad majorities of Democrats and Republicans say they’d be satisfied if their party’s candidate won such a rematch. Still, a sizable minority of voters express a desire for another option if Biden and Trump are the nominees.

Overall, 49% of registered voters say they would back Trump if an election between the two were held today, while 45% support Biden and 5% say they’d vote for someone else. Those numbers are identical to CNN polling on the contest in the fall, and the demographic dynamics of the contest appear to be steady – with a wide education gap among the most notable demographic divides, and smaller differences by age or race than in other recent presidential elections.

Biden’s support among traditionally Democratic-leaning blocs such as younger voters and voters of color has not grown since the fall: Voters younger than 35 remain about evenly split, 49% back Biden and 46% Trump, while voters of color break 57% Biden to 35% Trump.

Remember Polls are used to estimate how many votes they need to fix.
If a pollster calls tell them you love Biden and will vote for him.

It looks like cnn does NOT want to keep burning what little credibility it has on Crime Boss Joey and the Occupy White House gang that works his head.

I read the poll and it is complete and total bullshit. It queries 1212 adults from across the nation, which is a totally useless sample.

I would take some comfort in that Trump is ahead, but this is pure Gorgonzola {a stinky Italian cheese}.

These national polls are a waste of time and it will be used only by people that ignore reality.

They are counting the fraudulent votes for Biden.
