De CBS-YouGov interview found that Biden had a 6 percentage point lead over Trump in both states. In Pennsylvania, Biden received 49 percent to Trump’s 43 percent, while in Wisconsin the former vice president earned 48 percent, compared to the president 42 percent.
Trump won both states in 2016 and they were considered key to his election.
A majority of voters in both states – 75 percent of Pennsylvania and 76 percent of Wisconsinites – said they believe things in the U.S. are going badly amid the pandemic and economic unrest.
Voters in these battlefield states believe Biden would better manage the pandemic by “significant margins,” according to CBS News.
In both states, 47 percent of voters said the former vice president would better handle the coronavirus crisis, compared with 37 percent of Pennsylvania voters and 32 percent of Wisconsin voters who said the current president it would do better.
When it comes to the economy, Trump has an advantage as 46 percent of Pennsylvania respondents and 47 percent of Wisconsinite respondents said he would manage it better. In Pennsylvania, 45 percent believed Biden would better manage the economy and in Wisconsin, 43 percent agreed.
About two-thirds of participants in both states did not like how the president “treats himself personally.”
About half of the respondents who consider themselves promised to vote for Biden say that his vice-presidential election is very important for the election. Seven out of 10 people who do not currently vote for Biden but say they would consider him say the decision on running size is important.
CBS News notes that voters in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania have changed their minds beforehand, as Trump’s 2016 victory relied on last-minute voters and on gains in those states.
The CBS-YouGov poll surveyed 1,009 registered voters in Wisconsin and 1,225 in Pennsylvania between August 4 and 7. The poll recorded an error limit of 3.7 percentage points among both Pennsylvania and Wisconsin voters.
