President Biden polled ahead of former President Trump in Pennsylvania, a pivotal battleground state the president won in 2020, according to a survey released Wednesday.
The new poll from Quinnipiac University found Biden received 49 percent support and that Trump received 46 percent support from voters in the swing state.
The 3-point lead over Trump comes after the former president received 47 percent support and Biden received 45 percent support in Pennsylvania in a Quinnipiac University poll in October. In a Franklin & Marshall College poll of Pennsylvania voters that same month, however, Biden beat Trump by 2 points, with 44 percent saying they favored the president compared with 42 percent for Trump.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
