Trump pulling away from Biden with key Dem voting blocs: Poll

Daily Caller News Foundation

Former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden among two key groups of voters that propelled him to victory in 2020, according to a New York Times poll.

Trump led Biden among Hispanic voters, 50% to 41%, while holding a 48% to 40% lead among young voters ages 18-29, according to the poll. Biden won Hispanic voters, 65% to 32% in CNN’s exit poll in 2020, while he won voters from ages 18-24 by 34 points, and beat Trump by 11 points among voters from ages 25 to 29.

Trump led Biden 49% to 43% among likely voters, while among registered voters, Trump’s lead expanded to eight points in the NYT poll. Trump lost the popular vote in 2020, securing 46.86% to 51.31% for Biden.

Biden has come under fire for his performance in Thursday’s debate with Trump, during which he froze at least twice and made multiple verbal gaffes. Since the debate, Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett of Texas publicly called for Biden to end his bid for reelection.

Biden currently trails Trump by 2.5% in a national head-to-head matchup, according to the RealClearPolling average of polls, with Trump’s lead growing to 4.2% when independent candidates Cornel West, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Green Party candidate Jill Stein are included in the surveys. Biden led Trump by 8.8% in the RealClearPolitics average on July 3, 2020.

Biden’s age and mental fitness were issues dogging the president’s campaign before Thursday night’s debate. On multiple occasions, Biden said he spoke with people who had died, including claiming on Feb. 8 to have spoken with former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl about the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol, even though Kohl died in 2017, three days after he claimed to have spoken with former French President Francois Mitterrand, who passed away in 1996.

In September 2022, Biden asked for Republican Rep. Jackie Walorski of Indiana, who was killed along with two staffers in an August 2022 motor vehicle accident, during a conference on hunger. Biden has also suffered multiple falls during his term in office, including one at the Air Force Academy in June 2023, as well as falling down while on his bike in June 2022 and stumbling on the steps of Air Force One on multiple occasions.
