Biden Tops Trump in Vote, Economic Confidence

Joe Biden still bests President Trump in a head-to-head matchup, perhaps in part because voters express slightly more confidence in the likely Democratic nominee to handle the post-coronavirus economy.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds Biden earning 48% support among Likely U.S. Voters to Trump’s 43%. Eight percent (8%) remain undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

This marks little change from Biden’s 48% to 42% advantage in early March. Trump beat Biden 47% to 43% in a hypothetical matchup last September.

When asked which candidate would do a better job bringing the country back economically from the coronavirus crisis, 47% of voters say Biden, 44% Trump. Nine percent (9%) are not sure.

Rasmussen is Trump's favorite pollster, as CNN's Harry Enter points out:

Rasmussen, which Trump cites more often than I go to Popeyes, has Biden up by 5 nationally.

I doubt we'll be hearing anything from Trump about this latest poll, especially with it showing voters have more confidence in Biden's ability to revive the country's economy.

1. What I'm worried about is voter suppression, Hunter Biden, and all the dirty nasty tricks coming out

5. The more it looks like he's going to lose, the more dirty tricks we are assured of.

2. I suppose people with no phone or computer don't bother voting either.

Joe, don't do anything stupid between now and then and I believe we good.

3. 5% advantage for Biden from Rasm. should be 8 - 10% in reality

4. Merely having more support isn't good enough (ask Hillary about that)

3 MILLION more votes than tRump and the gopers (with Russian help) still managed to steal the White House. We need a landslide of epic proportions this November.

6. World record ad blitz AGAINST the scourge is what I expect, and thus the way across the finish.

Meanwhile CNN.com has an article right now on the home page, that he could win, refuse to read, hope that scares the shit out of wishy washy voters?
