A new poll in the crucial general election<\/a> battleground state of Pennsylvania<\/a> shows Democratic challenger Joe Biden<\/a> holding a double-digit lead over President Trump <\/a>among registered voters.<\/p>\n

But the survey, released Wednesday by Monmouth University<\/a>, indicates that voters are evenly divided on which candidate they think will win the Keystone State <\/a>\u2013 as a majority of those questioned believe that their communities hold a number of \u201csecret Trump\u201d voters.<\/p>\n

BIDEN UNVEILS $2 TRILLION PLAN TO BOOST CLEAN ENERGY, REPAIR NATION’S INFRASTRUCTURE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The former vice president<\/a> and presumptive Democratic nominee topped the GOP incumbent in the White House among registered voters 53-40 percent, according to the poll, which was conducted July 9-13.<\/p>\n

Biden held a smaller lead over Trump among the smaller pool of likely voters. He topped the president <\/a>52-42 percent under a likely voter turnout model higher than turnout in the 2016 presidential election — and held a 51-44 percent advantage under a lower likely turnout model. <\/p>\n

But the poll shows that registered voters are divided on whether they expect the president or Biden will win Pennsylvania in the end. One reason may be that 57 percent of registered voters questioned said they believe there\u2019s a sizeable amount of so-called secret voters in their communities who back Trump but won\u2019t tell anyone about their support. Only 27 percent said they believe there are secret voters for the former vice president.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe media consistently reports that Biden is in the lead, but voters remember what happened in 2016. The specter of a secret Trump vote looms large in 2020,\u201d Monmouth University Polling Institute director Patrick Murray highlighted.<\/p>\n

Pennsylvania \u2013 along with Michigan and Wisconsin \u2013 had been carried by Democrats in the presidential election for a quarter-century. But Trump narrowly edged out Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in all three states in 2016 \u2013 helping him win the White House.<\/p>\n

HERE’S WHAT THE LATEST FOX NEWS POLLS SAY ABOUT THE 2020 RACE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The new poll indicates the former vice president topping Trump 93-1 percent among Democrats, with the president beating Biden 84-12 percent among Republicans. Biden has a 21-point lead among independent voters. <\/p>\n

The survey also shows Biden with a large 31-point lead among voters under 50 \u2013 and a 10-point advantage among those 65 and older.<\/p>\n

Murray noted that \u201ceven taking into account any polling error from four years ago, Biden is clearly doing well in swing areas. The Democrat has roots in this region which may be helping him, but there seems to be an overall erosion of support for Trump compared to 2016.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden \u2013 who was born and spent his first 10 years in Scranton, Pa., before moving to Delaware \u2013 retains strong ties to the Keystone State. He\u2019s held seven\u00a0campaign events in Pennsylvania the past two months.<\/p>\n

The poll’s release comes with less than four months to go until November’s general election, which is still a long time in campaign politics. And the president and the Trump campaign have repeatedly slammed public opinion polling as flawed and charge the surveys under-sample Republican voters.<\/p>\n

The Monmouth University Poll was conducted using live telephone operators, with 409 registered voters in Pennsylvania questioned. The survey\u2019s sampling error is plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
