In a shocking turn of events, the latest polls show that former President Donald Trump is leading over President Joe Biden in five key battleground states. The polls, which were conducted in Nevada, Georgia, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, reveal that Trump is ahead by significant margins in each of these important states.
According to CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten, Trump is leading Biden by as much as 13 points in Nevada. This is a significant lead that has left many astonished, especially given that no Democrat has lost this state since 2004.

The polls also show Trump leading by significant margins in other key battleground states, such as Georgia, where he is up by nine points. Even in states where Trump’s lead is smaller, such as Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, he still maintains a lead that is within the margin of error.
When asked about the reasons for Trump’s strong performance, Enten attributed it to the changing Trump coalition, which has become more racially diverse. He noted that Trump has gained support from nonwhite voters, despite losing some ground among white voters.
These poll results come as a blow to the Biden campaign, especially as they reveal widespread dissatisfaction with the state of the country and serious doubts about Biden’s ability to deliver major improvements to American life. In fact, nearly 70 percent of voters believe that the country’s political and economic systems need major changes or even need to be torn down entirely.
The Biden administration’s insistence that the economy is doing well has also angered many Americans, especially as they continue to face rising prices for everyday essentials like groceries, housing, and fuel.
In conclusion, these poll results paint a dismal picture of a nation in turmoil under the current administration. It is clear that the Biden presidency has been a disappointment for many Americans, and the upcoming election will be crucial in determining the future of the country.
