With less than two months until Election Day, Democratic nominee Joe Biden holds a slight two-point lead over President Trump in the latest Rasmussen Reports’ weekly White House Watch survey.
The new national telephone and online survey finds Biden with 48% support among Likely U.S. Voters to Trump’s 46%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, while three percent (3%) remain undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
A week ago, Biden held a four-point lead following the two national party conventions. The former vice president has bested Trump in every weekly survey since the beginning of July, but this is the first time Trump has edged above 45%.

Biden has never at any time been within 2 points of Trump.
This is pathetic transparent propaganda.
It’s not working...
Rasmussen is one of the only ones polling anywhere near right.
Unexpectedly! /sarc
the only number that really matters in “most” of these polls is Slow Joe’s number. Trump has the rest.
= Trump +6.
Wasn’t Rasmussen saying last time that Biden was going to win, because his lead has been steady and close to ten pointis?
Still too early to hang your hat on any poll. Even Rasmussen vacillates day to day, week to week.
Has a Republican ever held the lead in September?
Rasmussen is bulls***.
Look at the rallies. Biden had literally a dozen people show up.
He is not within 10 points within what real voters will do.
Real movement will happen after the first debate.
Bush in 2000. But that was a different era.
As the election gets closer they are forced to get more honest.
Looking at polls over the last 30-40 years, even when Republican’s have won the Presidency, they have never show the Republican leading until the very end.
This years BS is no different.
Hillary won by 2.1%. Joe Biden is doing almost as well as Hillary. Good for Joe!
How many democrats as opposed to Republicans answer these polls? They’re always heavily skewed Dems. I don’t know a single person who’s answered one of these “telephone polls.”
I suspect Trump has a much larger lead than Rasmussen will admit.
It has Bodem up 9 in WI. Polls are still all screwy.
Biden.
The popular vote is unimportant.
Biden takes a super-majority of the vote on the West and NE coast states, but there is a cap to the number of Electoral Votes this generates.
What is important is how President Trump looks in the Electoral College.
Are there any projections for that?
2016 and this year are the worst I’ve ever seen.
The better Trump performs in the popular vote, his prospects of winning the electoral vote increase. It is unlikely Trump can win the electoral vote if he loses the popular vote by more than 3 or 4 points.
