Days before U.S. election, Biden's lead widens in Rust Belt: Reuters/Ipsos poll


Biden leads Trump by 10 percentage points in Wisconsin and Michigan, and the presidential nominee is ahead by seven points in Pennsylvania. Biden has led Trump in all three states in every Reuters/Ipsos weekly poll that began in mid-September, and his leads have ticked higher in the each state over the past two weeks.

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.

Excellent. Those are high quality polls too! SunSeeker Nov 2020 #1
The scary thing is the states after PA have wafer thin margins and getting closer. PA is crucial. Doodley Nov 2020 #2

Biden was up by 12 in Michigan.
If it stays 12 its called a blowout.
Also his mistaken reign ticks off
Midnight tomorrow night.

The most marginal state after that (based on polls) is PA. Even if Michigan is strong, can't take anything for granted.

So is Iowa also if the last poll taken turns out to be an outlier. And Biden doesn't ANY of those 7 states in order to win (if he wins the Omaha district in Nebraska where he seems to be leading comfortably) if he wins back the Blue Wall. Trump essentially has to win virtually everything to come out on top and thread a needle from a hundred yards out in order to win . Of course my emotions are a wreck even contemplating that possibility, but my mind feels solid. That doesn't mean anyone should take anything for granted, I was out doing GOTV yesterday myself.
