2024 Presidential Race: Biden and Trump Neck-and-Neck in Swing States

With just six months to go until Election Day, President Biden and former President Trump are locked in a tight race, with polls in key swing states indicating a close contest.

A new national poll released by USA Today and Suffolk University has revealed a dead heat between President Biden and former President Trump, with both candidates tied at 37% support among registered voters. The poll suggests that the 2024 presidential race is shaping up to be an extremely close contest, with just six months to go until Election Day.

The Suffolk poll is just one of several recent surveys that have indicated a tight race between Biden and Trump. An ABC News/Ipsos poll released Sunday showed Trump with a slight edge among adults, but Biden with the advantage among registered voters and likely voters.

The race for the White House is ultimately a battle for the states and their electoral votes, so the most recent polling in key swing states is particularly important. These polls indicate that the contests in these states are also very close.

In Florida, a key swing state that Trump won in 2016 but lost in 2020, a recent Fox News poll showed Biden leading Trump by just 3 points, within the margin of error. In Pennsylvania, another key swing state, a recent Franklin & Marshall College poll showed Trump leading Biden by 5 points, again within the margin of error.

These polls suggest that the 2024 presidential race is likely to be decided by a handful of swing states, and that the outcome of the election could hinge on the ability of the two candidates to win over voters in these key states.

The Suffolk poll also suggests that a significant number of voters are still undecided, with nearly a quarter of voters saying they might change their minds ahead of the fall election. This suggests that the race could still be swayed by factors such as the candidates' performance in the debates, the economy, or other unforeseen events.

Overall, the latest polls indicate that the 2024 presidential race is likely to be a close one, with both Biden and Trump having a chance to win. The outcome of the election will likely depend on the ability of the two candidates to win over voters in key swing states and sway the undecided voters.
