Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden's lead over President Donald Trump now stands at five points, but Trump has an edge in the critical battleground states that could decide the electoral college, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

In the new poll, 51% of registered voters nationwide back Biden, while 46% say they prefer Trump, while in the battlegrounds, 52% favor Trump and 45% Biden.

Looks like a replay of 2016 only better.

I suspect the outcome will be much better this time as Trump wins easily. However, the reaction from the other side won't be as much fun as they already know that Biden is going to lose. I doubt we'll have the repeat of the fun of watching the Democrat supporters slowly coming to the realization that their girl Hillary had lost.

Here, let me translate this. In Democrat Unicorn world where a majority of votes determines who is President, Biden would win. But here in the real world, where we have the Electoral College, Trump wins in a landslide.

If Slow Joe is ahead by 5% among registered voters nationwide, that means he’s ahead 1%-2%, at most, among likely voters. California, NY & Illinois will give Joe a 2% edge in votes nationwide, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

If Trump is ahead by 7% among registered voters in swing states, that means he’s ahead by 10% among likely voters, a huge margin. It will be a cakewalk for Trump in the Electoral College if this margin holds.

FYI: Trump won those battlegrounds by 2% in 2016. If he is winning by 5% now, that isn’t a “tilt” it’s a HUGE bump.

From the article it says "...while in the battlegrounds, 52% favor Trump and 45% Biden."

Even my public education says 52 minus 45 equals 7. And its only registered voters, not likely voters! I wonder if the internals of the poll show that they over-sampled democrats like they usually do.

THANK YOU. All the negative responses on this thread are hard to understand. The poll - from CNN no less - shows Trump winning the election, because he’s winning the battleground states. THOSE ARE THE ONLY STATES THAT MATTER. THEY DECIDE THE ELECTION. AND CNN SAYS THEY’RE GOING FOR TRUMP - JUST LIKE 2016

If Sleepy DEMENTIA Joe is losing to TRUMP in the Battlegrounds now then it is really GAME OVER

GOP & TRUMP haven't even started in on Sleepy DEMENTIA Joe yet! Plus voters haven't even seen the seriousness of his DEMENTIA!!

Once all that happens Sleepy DEMENTIA Joe will be down 15% to TRUMP

No way do I believe a majority wants Senile Joe in the White House.

The mega states on the coasts tilt the national vote.

The battleground states are where the action is.
