A recent New York Times/Siena College poll indicated that former President Donald Trump has taken a national lead over President Joe Biden among registered voters by a five-point margin, surpassing the margin of error.
Trump gained support among women and Latinos, while Biden’s disapproval ratings increased.
“Trump has cut into more traditional Democratic constituencies. … Women, who strongly favored Mr. Biden four years ago, are now equally split, while men gave Mr. Trump a nine-point edge,” the Times wrote.
“The poll showed Mr. Trump edging out Mr. Biden among Latinos.”
The poll highlighted a shift in working-class voter support away from Biden.
Trump garnered more enthusiasm from voters compared to Biden, with 48% showing enthusiasm for Trump and only 23% for Biden.
