According to a Bloomberg New/Morning Consult poll, trump is still leading in swing states [View all]

"Former President Trump holds a 6-point lead over President Biden in key battleground states that will likely determine the outcome of November’s election, according to a survey published Wednesday.

The Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll found Trump garnered 49 percent support in the swing states, over Biden’s 43 percent. The former president held the lead in six of seven states — Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, North Carolina, Georgia and Arizona. Biden was ahead by 2 points in Michigan, the survey found."

It boggles the mind when in that same poll "More than half, 52 percent, also cited abortion as a “very important” issue to them when deciding who to vote for in November. Just under 25 percent said it was a “somewhat important” factor for their decision."

and

"Respondents also said they trust Biden more than Trump when it comes to preserving federal programs such as Social Security and Medicare. Roughly 45 percent said they trust the president to preserve the programs over Trump’s 39 percent."

What kind of disconnect is going on? Are people in swing states that stupid. Most of the economic issues were a direct result of the trump administration.

The Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll was conducted April 8-15 among 4,969 registered voters in seven swing states. It has a margin of error of 1 percentage point.
