Again, not much movement from last week (Biden 47 - Trump 41)

Biden 46
Trump 42


Trump job approval
Adults: 47/47 (=)
RV: 46/51 (-5)

Trump virus approval
Adults: 44/48 (-4)
RV: 44/52 (-8)

Joe Biden favorability
Adults: 41/49 (-8)
RV: 45/52 (-7)

Trump favorability
Adults: 46/49 (-3)
RV: 46/53 (-7)

Males: Trump +6 (LW: Trump +2)
Females: Biden +14 (LW+ Biden +13)
18-29: Biden +26 (LW: Biden +28)
30-44: Biden +21 (LW: Biden +20)
45-64: Trump +5 (LW: Trump +5)
65+: Trump +9 (LW: Trump +3)
Whites: Trump +7 (LW: Trump +7)
Blacks: Biden +54 (LW: Biden +70)
Hispanics: Biden +16 (LW: Biden +17)

Seems like a rather pro-Trump sample, given his better approval rating than usual. Looks like the shift this week was in Males, 65+, and Blacks - though this week the poll has Trump at 16% with Blacks, which would be... surprising.

Looks like allegations are starting to take their tolls on Biden's favorables, though as you mentioned it looks like a more pro-Trump sample.

Last week was probably the height of the Reade scandal, so it's not surprising his numbers took a hit. I assume if there are no new updates though, Biden's numbers should recover relatively quickly. That's how that usually goes anyway.

Yeah. Interesting how an independent investigation is supported by voters 54-20. If that is something that could be organized, that would probably be a good move.

Honestly, that seems like a bad idea if your Biden. Voter's love the idea of an independent investigation but all it does is keep the scandal in the news. In this case, I figure Biden's best bet is to let this fizzle out organically, like it seems to be doing anyway.

Interesting to note though that the demo you'd think he would be hit hardest in... Females, he actually went up +1 from last week.

True. And honestly, 41-49 favorability isn't horrible in the middle of intense coverage of your sexual assault allegations. Still better than Hillary.

This is looking like 2016 all over again. We should have nominated Bernie.

The interesting thing in this poll is that the Dems still have an +8 in the GCB while Biden +4, so it looks like Biden has room to grow.

where are you even getting that based on this poll lol

Biden just got hit with a assault allegation yet his favorables are still way higher than Hillary lol


if anything It shows that Dems made the right call because if this was the best they could to hurt him.............trump is in big trouble  

Trump himself took a much bigger  hit in the polls when the access hollywood tape came out than Biden did over something like this and trump still won.

anyways the poll was taken at the height of all the tara controversy and Now I expect Biden to quickly recover with whatever small hit he may have taken now that the interest in Tara story is quickly fading and the media once again is focused on trump and the economy
