2024 Presidential Election Polls: Biden Leads Trump in Early Contests

Democrats Hold Slim Edge in Swing States

As the 2024 presidential election draws near, polls suggest that the race between incumbent President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump is likely to be competitive. According to a recent poll conducted by ABC News/Washington Post, Biden currently leads Trump by a margin of 49% to 43% among registered voters nationally.

Battleground States Key to Election

While the national polls provide a general overview of the race, the outcome of the election will likely be determined by the results in a handful of key swing states.

In these states, the race is expected to be tight, with both candidates having a chance of winning. A recent poll by the University of Pennsylvania found that Biden holds a narrow lead over Trump in Pennsylvania, one of the most important swing states, by a margin of 46% to 43%.

Trump Trails in National, Battleground State Polls

Trump, who lost the 2020 election to Biden, faces an uphill battle in the polls. In addition to trailing Biden nationally, he also trails in most of the key battleground states.

A recent poll by the Pew Research Center found that Trump trails Biden by a margin of 52% to 43% among registered voters in Florida, another crucial swing state.

Polls Subject to Change

It is important to note that the polls are subject to change, and the race could tighten as the election approaches.

However, the polls do provide a snapshot of the current state of the race and suggest that Biden is the favorite at this point.
