Swing State Independents Think Trump Is Handling This Better Than Biden Would

A recent CNBC shows that President Donald Trump and the Republican Party are essentially tied in key swing states with former Vice President Joe Biden and the Democrats when it comes to the handling the coronavirus pandemic.

The poll, which tested top battleground states like Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, show that Trump leads Biden 46-45 in terms of handling COVID-19, as well as leading the presumptive Democratic nominee 45-43 when it comes to putting the middle class first.

What's worse for Biden is that, right now, Trump holds an edge over Biden with independents in these states.

In a hypothetical match-up, Trump holds a narrow, 48%-46% lead over Biden among all the battleground voters surveyed, including a 41%-32% lead among independents.

He also leads Biden 51%-40% in who would do a better job handling the economy.

There are two problems Biden will have to overcome if he wants to try and win back the independents in these states.

The other issue for Biden is that independent voters, ones who remember the Obama economy, are wary about how Biden would handle things in the current climate.
