Dead heat: Trump erases Biden’s 8-point lead in Pennsylvania as blacks abandon Democrat

Via The Washington Examiner

Trump Pennsylvania

Former Vice President Joe Biden, who calls himself “a kid from Scranton,” has lost his wide lead over President Trump in his native Pennsylvania where the 2020 presidential race is a dead heat.

The latest Rasmussen Reports poll showed that both are tied at 46%.

And, significantly, said the poll analysis, among the 82% of voters who said that they are “certain” how they will vote, Trump holds a 51%-49% advantage.

Rasmussen is the second poll in two days to show the race in Pennsylvania, the key battleground state, has become a tie. The Monmouth University Poll said Wednesday that Biden had a lead of one- to three-points.

Just two weeks ago, Biden had an eight-point lead in the state that expects to see a huge battle. Trump’s surprise 2016 victory came after he upset Hillary Rodham Clinton in traditionally Democratic states including Pennsylvania, which both Trump and Vice President Mike Pence have campaigned in.

It also confirmed another trend that is hurting Biden. Black voters, which Biden is depending on, are not enthusiastic about his candidacy, despite having Sen. Kamala Harris on the ticket. Rasmussen found that just 67% of blacks in Pennsylvania support Biden while 27% back Trump.

The analysis said, “Worrisome for the former vice president is his 67% black support, low for a Democrat, with the incumbent earning 27% of the black vote in Pennsylvania. Trump leads among whites and other minority voters.”

In a second survey released by Rasmussen, Trump has a 50% approval rating.

The Rasmussen poll is key because it includes only “likely voters” and uses a ratio of Democrats to Republicans that is more in line with the national voting patterns.

2020 election:

“Color revolutions are usually launched over controversial elections. The results are publicly put into doubt even before the election begins. When the results finally arrive MSM media will claim that they diverge from the expectation it created and therefore must have been faked. Antifa/BLM will pushed their people into the streets to protest. To increase the chaos some sharp shooters may be put to work to fire at the police and at protesters like it was done in Ukraine. The revolt ends when it is flogged down or when the Elite’s favorite candidate is put into place”

Biden talks about leaving PA for DE when he was a kid like he escaped from Alcatraz. PA voters should be particularly poised to tell him to fuck off. And now he’s pretending to be against riots when three weeks ago he picked a running mate who bailed out rioters back in May/June. You don’t get arrested for protesting, you get arrested for rioting, arson, looting – and she bailed them out so they could commit more crimes. Trump is a bullshitter, but Biden is full of shit.

Dems still control the state government of PA and will be counting the votes.

The Democrat’s poster monster is the Pennsylvania Department of Sickness’s Dr. DIck Levine and the image of this walking abortion should be provided to the good people of the Keystone State at every opportunity as the (disgusting) face of the Liberal-Progressive-Communist illness that enrobes the whole place.

A stunning example of what has been puzzling me. Why do all these Blue shit holes choose unserious people for serious jobs? It has to be on purpose. I wonder if there are writings that lay that out as part of a plan to degrade?

Anyone who still believes these polls is delusional. Biden can’t even get 2 dozen ppl to show up after hiding for weeks in his basement. Takes no questions and disappears. Trump goes to Kenosha and ppl are lining the streets for miles just to see him go by. Biden is in the lead? yeah right. Fuckin’ retards will believe anything.
