This week, a New York Times/Siena poll found former President Donald Trump holding impressive leads over President Joe Biden in five out of six swing states crucial for winning the White House in November. Trump holds a narrow edge in Pennsylvania and substantial margins in Arizona, Michigan, Georgia, and Nevada among registered voters. Only in Wisconsin does Biden have a lead, and only by a mere 2 percentage points.
Polls in May don’t predict results in November with exactness. However, the numbers rightly elicit concern among Democrats. Their candidate clearly is behind at this point in the race. He cannot lose those five states and hold any plausible path to victory.
