The latest polling show President Donald Trump taking the lead in three blue states, including Pennsylvania, Nevada and New Hampshire.
The three state-level polls were each taken following the first presidential debate, revealing growing momentum for Trump’s campaign.
Trump took to his Truth Social account to highlight the recent polling results, including a Cygnal study showing him ahead 48 to 44 percent over Biden in Pennsylvania.
“Trump holds a four-point lead over incumbent Joe Biden in both the head-to-head matchup and full presidential ballot,” said Cygnal and Trump 2020 pollster, Brock McCleary, stated in a press release alongside the Pennsylvania poll.
“Trump turned the Keystone State red in 2016 but Biden was able to flip it back to blue in 2020, meaning Pennsylvania is likely determine the next President. This latest data shows momentum building for Trump with his net favorability increasing to 45 percent while Biden’s stands at just 39 percent, coupled with an even worse number – an unfavorable view among voters at 60 percent,” he added.
Cygnal President Brent Buchanan also noted the significance of Pennsylvania’s Trump support in the poll, including the battle for power in the Senate.
“The political environment in Pennsylvania is encouraging for Republicans, even as the Democrat campaign machine has poured millions into the commonwealth trying to bolster Senator Casey’s lackluster image,” Buchanan said.
“Our data shows Dave McCormick’s race to unseat Casey is more competitive than many think,” he continued.
Trump has also moved ahead of Biden by four points in New Hampshire, according to a poll released last week.
The Saint Anselm College Survey Center at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics (NHIOP) survey revealed that Trump now holds a 44 percent to 42 percent advantage over Biden.
“76% of registered voters in New Hampshire stated they were committed to their choice, while 24% indicated they might reconsider their vote,” the group shared in a post featuring the poll on X.
The latest polling data from National Public Affairs also shows President Trump leading Biden by 10 points in Nevada, holding a lead of 49 percent to 39 percent.
The Senate race in Nevada, however, reveals a different picture. Democratic Sen. Jackie Rosen leads Republican candidate Sam Brown by 8 points in the latest poll. The down-ballot battle could play a major role in both the White House and Senate.
