Trump Ahead of Biden in Swing States: Survey

Trump

In a recent survey conducted by Ipsos, former President Donald Trump has emerged as the favored candidate over President Joe Biden in all seven swing states—Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada. The survey, conducted from June 4 to June 12 with a margin of error of 2.5%, indicates that Trump would secure a 37% to 35% victory over Biden across these states. Moreover, in a head-to-head matchup, Trump would prevail with a 48% to 43% lead over Biden.

The regional breakdown of the survey results reveals Trump’s significant leads in certain areas. In the Southeast (Georgia and North Carolina), Trump is ahead by seven points, while in the Midwest (Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin), he leads by 10 points. However, in the Southwest (Arizona and Nevada), Trump trails Biden by 12 points. The survey also highlights the key issues influencing voter sentiment. Across all three regions, the top concern among voters is inflation and increasing costs, followed closely by immigration.

This survey reflects a broader trend of Trump’s growing advantage in the crucial swing states that could ultimately decide the outcome of the November election. According to Real Clear Politics’ polling averages, Trump currently leads Biden in all seven states. However, nationally, Biden maintains a slight edge of 0.5 percentage points over Trump. This shift in national sentiment towards Biden comes in the wake of Trump’s recent conviction in Manhattan, with polls showing Biden gaining ground after trailing Trump for a month.

The campaign strategies of both candidates reflect these trends. Biden’s campaign has launched a major ad campaign in swing states, labeling Trump as a “convicted criminal” following his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. Meanwhile, Trump and his campaign surrogates have repeatedly emphasized Biden’s age and mental acuity, pointing to videos that purportedly show him looking confused in public.

Another significant issue in the campaign is immigration. Border crossings have reached record highs under Biden’s administration, prompting him to announce a new, stricter standard for asylum applicants at the border. Additionally, Biden unveiled a plan to remove legal barriers for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens, potentially granting amnesty to an estimated 550,000 migrants living in the U.S. illegally.

Looking ahead, the first debate between Trump and Biden for this election cycle is scheduled for next Thursday on CNN.
