A new poll shows Donald Trump is leading President Biden in Georgia — a key battleground state that is the site of Thursday’s first presidential debate.Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. also got 9% in the poll released Tuesday, while another 8% of likely voters were undecided. One percent supported Libertarian Chase Oliver, another 1% said they would not vote, and the same percentage said “other candidate.
The AJC poll is in line with other recent polls showing Trump consistently ahead of Biden in Georgia. RealClearPolitics has Trump averaging 5.6% ahead of Biden in the state that he lost in 2020 by a narrow margin of just .23%. Despite Trump’s lead, the poll shows that Trump’s guilty verdict in his Manhattan “hush money” case has been influencing voter opinion there, at least among independents. About one third of the independent voters surveyed said the fact that he was guilty of all 34 charges out against him makes them less likely to vote for him.Biden has set up shop at Camp David for the week before the debate to prep with his closest advisers.
The incumbent is also unpopular with young voters. Only 12% of those polled between the ages of 19 and 29 said they would vote for Biden. The poll was conducted June 11 to 22 by the University of Georgia’s School of Public and International Affairs, had a sample size of 1,000 likely voters and a margin of error of 3.1%.Calif.
