A recent national poll indicates that former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden on several leadership traits. Trump is perceived as tougher (66%-28%), more energetic (61%-26%), more effective (52%-38%), and more competent (49%-40%). He also narrowly leads on having a vision for the country. Despite these strengths, Biden holds a narrow lead in personal qualities. The poll also reveals that Trump and Biden are nearly tied both nationally and in key battleground states. In Minnesota, Biden maintains a 4-point lead over Trump, but Trump is within striking distance, suggesting the state could be competitive in the upcoming election. Trump's campaign is focusing on flipping Minnesota, a state that has not voted Republican since Nixon. Trump is also seen as more able to improve finances for the poor, while Bidenโs supporters are increasingly motivated by the single desire to keep Trump out.
