US Election 2020: Trump Trails Behind Biden In New Poll

A new poll by Reuters/Ipsos showed that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden rides high on the poll ahead of incumbent President Donald Trump in two crucial states.

The poll result showed the former vice president leading Trump by 7 percentage points in both states.

Reuters/Ipsos is polling likely voters in six states - Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina, Florida, and Arizona - that will play critical roles in deciding whether Trump wins a second term in office or if Biden ousts him.

Below is a state-by-state look at Reuters/Ipsos findings, based on the online responses of likely voters, which include responses from some who cast ballots ahead of the formal Nov. 3 Election Day, which is increasingly common due to the coronavirus pandemic:
