Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden holds a 14-point lead over President Trump in a national poll taken right after their first debate.
Biden has the support of 53 percent of registered voters in the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released early Sunday, compared to Trumps 39 percent.
Bidens lead increased 8 percentage points from a poll before last weeks debate, NBC News noted, adding that the former vice presidents current advantage over Trump is his largest of the 2020 campaign.
Almost half of respondents 49 percent told pollsters that Biden did a better job in the debate, which was marked by repeated interruptions and personal insults. Roughly one-quarter 24 percent said Trump did better.
Approximately three in four registered voters 73 percent said the debate would have no effect on their vote.
Trumps job approval rating also fell 2 percentage points in the new survey to 43 percent.
Fifty-eight percent of respondents said Biden has the better temperament to be president, compared to 26 percent who selected Trump.
Biden also holds an edge over the president on topics including race relations, health care and the coronavirus.
Trump is still the choice of more respondents on the economy, although his support slipped 3 points in the new poll.
Respondents were also split on Trumps nominee to succeed the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. Thirty-five percent support Amy Coney Barretts nomination, 33 percent oppose it and 30 percent say they need more information.

An ABC News poll shows Clinton leading Trump, 50% to 38%
CNN’s Poll of Polls average has Clinton ahead 48% to 39%
In related news, Biden decided to jog home to Delaware, he was so energized by his debate win.
Every time a ‘pollster’ calls I’m all in for slo joe.
That way, then Trump wins - I can enjoy the lamentations wailing of the libs that much more....
WRONG TO YOU! Hell also win Canada and Mexico!
+9 and almost identical to the 11 point lead Hillary had in the same poll 4 years ago at this time
This is based on our unbiased polling of all residents on the Upper East Side of Manhattan..
D +9 poll !!!
Where? That is an extremely ridiculous number.
If this holds, Biden will beat Trump 2 to 1 and it will be a massive blue wave. Kiss you a$$ goodbye, America.
I think its a ploy to justify riots and a raft of other events after November 3: Biden couldnt have lost! He was up 14 points nationally! Trump cheated! Count all votes!”
I heard Biden whupped three alligators at one time when he was a boy in Scranton.
One would think it is to rile their base for disappointment and stompyfooting after a Trump win Or to shut people up in case of successful election theft
Biden is ahead 14 Seems off. But people in the cities like him. Ive seen Biden lawn signs lately
Dems dont go to rallies they are not interested in listening to anyone they know whom theyre voting for. So rally size is not indicative. It wasnt for H!
