"Biden blue state blowout"

[Tender Branson]

Quelle surprise ...

[anthonyjg]

Yeah not exactly surprising, but it is interesting that his share in the national average is right where Clinton was all while being several points behind her in New York.

[ProudModerate2]

Why poll these states?

[Landslide Lyndon]

Boooooring.

But anyway, I doubt that Biden will win New York only by 23.

[Fmr. Gov. NickG]

Yeah not exactly surprising, but it is interesting that his share in the national average is right where Clinton was all while being several points behind her in New York.

I’m not sure what this means.  Clinton won NY by 22, and NJ and CT by 14.   So he’s basically even with Clinton in NY and well ahead of her in the the other two.

[BudgieForce]

It'll be interesting to see how much Connecticut snaps back in 2020. Hillary actually did better in NJ than she did in CT in 2016.

Why poll these states?

It's worth making sure you aren't missing any surprises, even if you don't need to poll them quite as often. Also, much of this poll is about the Coronavirus outbreak, which has been worst in the New York metro area.

That's true. Not only bad in New York but also New Jersey.

I was looking at it in terms of raw vote share. Clinton got just under 60 in New York and 48 nationwide. If Biden’s at 48 nationwide still but only 55 in New York, he would presumably be pulling votes from somewhere else, hopefully not safe states.

I'm gonna assume those voters who are undecided in the NY poll lean Biden, since if he's blowing margins out in places like NJ, CO, CT, and other places, his NY margin is probably closer to 30

[Lief 🗽]

Would be nice to see NY and CT in the Atlas >60% red shade again. Never forget

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Beautiful! Thank you, Northeastern America!

Well, Clinton had something of a home state claim to NYers, as did Trump.  All else being equal, I expected the NY margin to narrow with a Dem who never lived there.

Throughout 2016, Hillary regularly polled in the mid-50s in NY. I wouldn't read too much into it.

[Progressive Pessimist]

Sure, these states will all be safe D states but it does make me feel proud of my state that it could match Obama's margin of victory of 2012 again for Biden. Especially in the midst of that Colorado poll from yesterday that had Biden winning it to the left of the last New Jersey poll. I just don't see how Colorado votes Democratic by that much when New Jersey doesn't.

But really, the Tri-State area will not be kind to Trump this year. That's looking truer than ever.

Comparable Quinnipiac polls at this point in time in 2016 (5-6 months before the election)

New Jersey - source

Clinton - 45%
Trump - 38%

Connecticut - source

Clinton - 41%
Trump - 36%

[MT Treasurer]

Never really understood why some people think CT is trending Republican in the long run. It’s honestly one of the last states in the Northeast where I’d expect a GOP resurgence.

I want to know if Trump will overperform with the white ethnic cops and firefighters

Same with Rhode Island. They’re too urban to vote Republican on the presidential level.

Connecticut - source

The prospective vote for Trump is 3% less in both states than it was four years ago, 15% higher for Biden than for Clinton in Connecticut and 9% higher for Biden than for Clinton in New Jersey at the same time.
