Biden +9 Over Trump In NYT/Siena Pennsylvania Poll

The Hill reports:



Democratic nominee Joe Biden leads President Trump by nine percentage points in the state of Pennsylvania, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll released on Monday.

Biden receives 49 percent support among likely voters in Pennsylvania while Trump receives 40 percent, roughly five weeks before the November presidential election.

The survey, conducted between Friday and Sunday of last week, comes just after Trump nominated federal appeals court judge Amy Coney Barrett to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. After announcing Barrett as his choice on Saturday evening, Trump traveled to Middletown, Pa., to hold a campaign rally where he touted his decision.
