Don’t like the polling results? Biden's new strategy: Hire new pollsters

Spooked by the results of a Wall Street Journal poll released on Tuesday night that showed former President Donald Trump leading President Joe Biden in head-to-head matchups in six of seven battleground states, the Biden team took immediate action: They hired new pollsters.

Politico reported on Wednesday that the Biden campaign hired eight veteran pollsters “to lead its number-crunching operation.” The outlet explained that “the expansion of Biden’s polling team comes at a complicated moment, given Biden’s stubbornly low approval ratings and pollsters’ struggles to measure the electorate accurately in the past two presidential races.” It’s unclear how adding to their stable of pollsters will help make the president more popular.
