President Biden made significant gains against Donald Trump during the past month in six of seven 2024 swing states, according to a Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll out Tuesday.
It’s the first time in months that the swing state poll has Biden within striking distance of Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.
- The poll measured a period in which Biden followed his impassioned State of the Union address with a swing state tour and a series of sharp attacks on Trump.
Biden performed best in the Rust Belt swing states, where both candidates have been arguing they are the best to resuscitate American industry.
- The polls showed the president with a 1-point lead in Wisconsin and tied with Trump in Pennsylvania and Michigan.
- Biden drew closer in Nevada, trailing Trump there 46-44 — well within the poll’s margin of error for that state.
- Despite some Biden gains, Trump’s lead remained significant in Arizona (5 points) and North Carolina (6 points).
- Trump’s lead grew only in Georgia, where Bloomberg/Morning Consult had him ahead by 7 points, up from 6 in February.
