Less than 3 weeks before Election Day, Joe Biden maintains a double-digit national lead over President Trump, with 6-in-10 voters saying that the country is on the wrong track and that it is worse off than it was 4 years ago.
But what's different from four years ago is just how stable Biden's national lead has been over the past year, including among key voting subgroups like women, voters of color, seniors and independents.In the current poll, Biden's biggest advantages are among Black voters , Latinos , women , voters ages 18 to 34 , whites with college degrees , seniors and independents .All of those numbers are consistent with NBC News/WSJ polling since the beginning of the year.
That's an improvement since July, when only 19 percent of voters said the country was headed in the right direction, but it's lower than the more than 30 percent who were saying that before the coronavirus pandemic hit the United States. The president's job rating in the poll stands at 44 percent approval and 54 percent disapproval among registered voters ."In the end, elections always come back to the fundamentals," said Democratic pollster Peter Hart, who also helped conduct the poll.While more say the country is worse off than it was four years ago, voters' attitudes about their personal situations are different.
