Trump Leads in Five Key States Ahead of 2024 Election, Polls Indicate

United States of America
Current President Joe Biden is leading in Wisconsin.
Former President Donald Trump is leading in five of the six most critical battleground states a year before the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election.
The polls reveal a level of dissatisfaction among voters regarding Biden's handling of the economy and other issues.

As the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election approaches, recent polls conducted by The New York Times and Siena College indicate that former President Donald Trump is leading in five of the six most critical battleground states. These states include Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. Current President Joe Biden, however, is leading in Wisconsin. The polls suggest that Trump leads by an average of 48% to 44% across these six states.

Despite these early predictions, Biden's campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz has cautioned against reading too much into these figures. He cited Gallup's incorrect prediction of an 8 point loss for President Obama in 2012 as an example of how predictions more than a year out can change significantly as the election nears.

The polls also reveal a level of dissatisfaction among voters regarding Biden's handling of the economy and other issues. Doubts about his age have also been raised. The multiracial and multigenerational coalition that elected Biden in 2020 appears to be fraying, with demographic groups that backed Biden in 2020 now more closely contested. However, with a year still to go before the election, Biden's team remains optimistic. Economic indicators are on the rise, and his well-funded campaign is aiming to shore up his demographic weak spots.
