Just one point separates President Joe Biden over former President Donald Trump.
The Reuters/Ipsos poll, released Thursday, has Biden leading Trump with 39% of the votes, compared to Trump’s 38%, according to The Hill.
As the November general approaches, 12% of those responding said they don’t know who they would vote for or would not vote at all. Still, 11% said they would back some other candidate.
The survey found Biden leading Trump with 39 percent of support among registered voters, compared to the former president’s 38 percent. The one-week poll, which closed Wednesday, also shows that 12 percent of its respondents said they don’t know who they would vote for or would not vote at all, while 11 percent would back some other candidate.
However, other polls show Trump ahead of Biden.
“According to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ’s polling average, Trump is leading Biden by about 1.4 percentage points nationally,” The Hill reported.
A Reuters poll has Trump ahead of Biden in the seven states that had close outcomes in 2020. Trump has 40% of registered voters selecting him, while 37% back Biden.
Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has received 15% of registered voters in those states backing him, Reuters reported.
After for U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley dropped out of the race to become the Republican nominee, only 37% said they’d vote for fellow Republican Trump.
“About 16% said they would vote for Biden, while the rest said they would vote for someone else or not vote at all,” The Hill reported.
The poll involved responses from 4,094 U.S. adults, including 3,356 registered voters, from March 7-13. The margin of error among registered voters was 1.8 percentage points and 1.7 percentage points for all respondents, The Hill said.
