Trump Surges in Polls of Arizona, Minnesota
Arizona:
A bit of good news for President Trump came Monday evening. A new poll shows him leading former Vice President Joe Biden in Arizona by about a point-and-a-half just 85 days before the election. The state-wide survey conducted by the Trafalgar Group, a Republican polling firm, has Trump ahead, 46.2% to 44.8%.
The president had fallen behind his challenger in the once-reliably-red state but has whittled down Biden�s lead to within the margin of error in the RealClearPolitics polling average, which now places the presumptive Democratic nominee ahead of Trump by just 2.2 points.
Arizona is a very tight swing state. If Trump's really only polling behind by 2.2 points (in aggregate), I'm inclined to think he's actually ahead in all of the swing states.
Meanwhile, a new poll shows Trump behind by just three points in Blue Minnesota -- epicenter of the Black Lives Matter insurrection.
President Trump is within striking distance of former Vice President Joe Biden in Minnesota, according to a new Emerson College poll released Tuesday that shows the GOP incumbent trailing by only 3 points in a state Democrats have carried for decades.
The survey shows Biden with 50 percent of the vote in Minnesota, while Trump trails with 47 percent, within the poll�s 3.6 percentage point margin of error.
Hillary Clinton beat Trump in Minnesota in 2016, by 1.5%.
Real Clear Politics shows Trump gaining bigly in the swing states, cutting Biden's lead (or, "lead") to 4.3%.
