The polls keep rolling in showing Donald Trump’s unpopularity less then a year and half out from the general election…
These are NOT good looks for the REAL Presidential race…
The ELECTORAL COLLEGE
This while Trump keeps rocking the boat on several fronts….
New Morning Consult polling shows President Trump’s approval rates are not very good in some states he needs to win in 2020:
- New Hampshire: 39% to 58%
- Wisconsin: 42% to 55%
- Michigan: 42% to 54%
- Iowa: 42% to 54%
- Arizona: 45% to 51%
- Pennsylvania 45% to 52%
- Ohio: 46% to 50%
- North Carolina: 46% to 50%
- Florida: 48% to 48%
- Indiana: 49% to 46%
Dylan Scott: Donald Trump approval polls, Polling, Swing states , Politics, 2020 Presidential election Wisconsin and Michigan were critical Midwestern pieces of Trump’s Electoral College puzzle and he is now deeply unpopular in both states. Pennsylvania was maybe his most surprising win in 2016, and now he is seven points underwater. Perhaps Trump can take solace in his even job approval rating in Florida, but that is the only swing state where the president looks as strong as he did on Election Day 2016. Everywhere else, his support has deteriorated.”
“Maybe the most striking finding is in Iowa, where Trump beat Hillary Clinton by nearly 10 points.”
Early swing state polls suggest President Trump will have his work cut out for him to win reelection to a second term.
Trump’s upset victories in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin propelled him to the White House in 2016. He was the first Republican presidential candidate to win any of those states since 1988.
Today, most polls show Trump behind former Vice President Joe Biden — the current front-runner in the Democratic race — in all of those swing states.
That’s a problem, because if the 2016 map otherwise stays the same, a Democratic candidate who wins those three states will win the Electoral College….
