Trump leads Biden nationally and in Pennsylvania
[Arutz 7] - President Donald Trump has taken the lead over former Vice President Joe Biden in a new national poll, giving the incumbent his first lead over his Democratic challenger in a month and a half.

According to the new Rasmussen daily tracking poll, President Trump’s approval rating is up sharply, rising to a net positive of six points, with 52% of likely voters approving of Trump’s job performance, compared to 46% who disapprove.

The Rasmussen poll also found Trump enjoying a net swing of four points in his favor in a head-to-head matchup against Biden. While the previous Rasmussen poll showed Biden leading Trump by three points, 49% to 46%, the new poll has Trump leading by a single point, 48% to 47%.

That is the first time since mid-September that Trump has led Biden in a national poll.

In the key battleground state of Pennsylvania, a poll by InsiderAdvantage showed Trump edging out Biden by two points, 48% to 46%, two weeks after the polling agency showed Biden leading Trump by three points, 46% to 43%.

#5 They can't cheat if the margin is wide enough. Run up the score, run like you're down 5, get out every GOP voter you can find. Volunteer - call your local party, or call the national organizations whoa re calling key areas in PA FL GA TX MI WI MN NC

#6 Which is easier to believe, that 10%+ of the nation has changed their mind, or that the polls have been lying to us all along?

Note that fake polls don't just discourage the opposition. They also provide cover for fraud.

#7 Assume at least 5% margin of cheating needed to win. And then need more to minimize civil dispute/riot over "invalid/stolen" election. Vote and drag your sympathetic acquaintances with you.

#8 Locally, I've never seen this much voter enthusiasm. This tends to be a Pub area so I tend to think these are largely Trump voters.

...We'll know for sure in about a week, but I've been seeing things here and there about the edge suddenly changing - and remember that it was just about a week before the 2016 election that Hilary's people suddenly realized that the bottom might be dropping out. They couldn't get HER to listen, though, and watched it crater.

Once again, I am reminded that Hillary is not President and my heart swells with gladness. I think you are supposed to see a doctor if your Shadenfreude lasts longer than four years.

#11 Trump crawled on. Upon his hair no fire would catch; and though now and again some great beast that attacked him would go mad and spread stamping ruin among the remaining Dems that assailed him, their bodies were cast aside from his path and no others took their place. Trump crawled on. The drums rolled wildly.

Apologies to JRR
