I’m seeing more polls now that are giving the GOP leads in the generic ballot — NY Times/Siena, Harvard/ Harris, and CBS. And of course Rasmussen, which jumped to +7 R in the past week. Some of this is the fact that polls are moving to Likely Voters...

Fox News’ latest presidential poll shows Biden with a 10% lead over Trump (53% to 43%) — a 5% increase in one month. It is in line with other current polls including Rasmussen, normally a source of relatively good news for Trump, which has...

In case anyone is wondering why Donald Trump has posted 100 insanely rage-infested tweets since 9:00 PM Tuesday night, it might have something to with how desperate and scared he is. This is how he copes with fear and the burden of a future that holds...

A few things worry me about this poll, which has Biden ahead by just 2 points (was 4 points in their last poll). The poll was all taken entirely after the RNC AND after the Portland incident Saturday. Impossible to say which of these had the most...

Let's face it, Donald Trump proves every day that the only thing he really cares about is Donald Trump. He rarely talks about anything other than his hyper-inflated self-adoration, and how magnificent he believes he is at whatever he does. He even...

Today’s Ras poll has Trump approval at 43/54, or -11. Civiqs has it 43/53, or -10. This happened once before and it lasted for several days, back when Civiqs was showing the spread as narrow as -5. I don’t think it will last so long this time but...

It’s easy to dismiss Rasmussen. But 53% is quite high even for them. And it’s not just them. Emerson has Trump at 48/47. Same poll has Biden beating Trump by 1 pt, down from 8 in their last poll. Something is going on. Based on what I have heard, no...
