Jill Biden insists her husband is not losing in battleground states despite polling – Washington Examiner

First lady Jill Biden denied that her husband, President Joe Biden, is behind in multiple swing states ahead of the 2024 presidential election, arguing that it would be “obvious” Biden would be reelected.

Biden was discussing the campaign work she had been doing for her husband, and that she was not worried at all about possibly losing in a rematch with former President Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party. One of the hosts then asked her about recent polling data that indicated Biden was losing to Trump in multiple battleground states, prompting her to immediately object.

“No, he’s not losing in all the battleground states,” Biden told CBS Mornings. “He’s coming up, and he’s even or doing better.”

The first lady then fell back on her previous statement about the election, citing how voters would be given a choice between “chaos” or “steady, wisdom, experience.” Biden added that when voters are presented with their choice between her husband and Trump, “it’s obvious” her husband will emerge as the victor.

The polling data Biden was asked about was a new poll from the Wall Street Journal, which found that the president is currently falling behind Trump in six out of seven battleground states, including Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and North Carolina. In Wisconsin, Biden and Trump were tied at 46%.

All of these states, aside from North Carolina, had gone to Biden in the 2020 Electoral College. Additionally, Trump’s lead in all but Wisconsin across these states ranged between 2-8%.

The poll, released Wednesday, was conducted from March 17-24, and consisted of 600 voters from each state. The margin of error was +/-1.5%.
