Trump leads Biden in Pennsylvania, according to the latest Marist poll.
Pennsylvania will once again play a major role in the election. Democrats believe Biden must win the state, but Trump won the state in 2016 and is certain to win it again in 2024.
If Biden loses here in November, his path to 270 votes in the Electoral College will certainly narrow.
Breitbart News reported:
Poll: Trump leads Biden in key swing state Pennsylvania
A recent Marist poll found that former President Donald Trump is defeating President Joe Biden in the key swing state of Pennsylvania.
The survey, conducted June 3-6, 2024, follows a Manhattan jury’s controversial guilty verdict in Trump’s business records trial and shows Trump leading Biden by two points in the Keystone State . The former president received 47% support, while Biden received 45%.
Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was a distant third with 3 percent, followed by Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 1 percent. Cornel West is at 1% and Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver is at less than 1%. Another two percent have yet to make a decision.
The survey also found that Trump defeated Biden with 42% support among Pennsylvania independent voters, compared to 40% for Biden. Eight percent of independents support Kennedy, followed by West at 3 percent and Stein at 3 percent.
The Marist poll noted Biden had an 8-point advantage among independents in the Keystone State in 2020.

The Trump campaign would be wise to continue visiting these blue cities. You’re not going to see Biden move into the heavily red zone.
