A new Quinnipiac poll revealed that former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden by 2% in the all important state of Pennsylvania.
Senior Trump advisor Jason Miller celebrated the survey, saying Trump’s polling numbers are the driving motivator behind his legal battles.
“If you can’t see what’s going on here with the Witch-Hunt, and why, then you’re blind,” Miller said.
In the poll, Trump led Biden among Independent voters 48% to 39%.
“Biden vs. Trump: same as it ever was, setting up another likely bare-knuckled brawl between the two candidates in Biden’s home state,” said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim.
Trump’s success carried over to the GOP primary in the same poll, with Trump clocking in at 61% support among Pennsylvania registered Republican voters. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) came in second with 14% support. This is down 25% from June 2023.
“It’s certainly not enough for Trump to ‘hear footsteps,’ but Ron DeSantis may well take note that candidate Nikki Haley is closing in on second position,” said Malloy.
Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley (R-S.C.) settles in at third place with 8% of the vote.
The Pennsylvania respondents indicated to the poll that the economy was the most urgent issue facing the country today. 30% listed the economy, 23% highlighted preserving democracy, and 15% named immigration.
The poll surveyed 1,725 Pennsylvania self-identified registered voters.
Trump currently leads Biden by 1.1% in a general election, according to RealClearPolitics polling average.

What does the poll reveal about Trump’s appeal among independent voters in Pennsylvania?
In a recent Quinnipiac poll, former President Donald Trump is shown to be leading President Joe Biden by 2% in the crucial state of Pennsylvania. This revelation has sparked celebration among senior Trump advisor Jason Miller, who claims that these polling numbers are what drive Trump’s legal battles.
Miller stated, “If you can’t see what’s going on here with the Witch-Hunt, and why, then you’re blind.” This statement reflects the ongoing narrative from Trump and his supporters that he is being unfairly targeted and persecuted.
The poll also revealed that Trump is leading Biden among independent voters in Pennsylvania, with 48% support compared to Biden’s 39%. This indicates that Trump’s appeal among voters extends beyond party lines.
Furthermore, the survey showed Trump’s dominance in the GOP primary, with 61% support from Pennsylvania registered Republican voters. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis came in second with 14% support, a significant decrease of 25% compared to June 2023. Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley settled in third place with 8% of the vote.
These numbers suggest that while Trump continues to be a strong contender within the Republican Party, DeSantis and Haley are also gaining traction as potential candidates. This could lead to a fierce competition among Republicans in the upcoming primary.
In terms of the most urgent issues facing the country, Pennsylvania respondents highlighted the economy as their top concern, with 30% listing it as the most pressing issue. Preserving democracy and immigration were also mentioned, with 23% and 15% respectively.
It’s important to note that this poll surveyed 1,725 self-identified registered voters in Pennsylvania. While the results may be indicative of the current sentiment in the state, it is crucial to consider potential biases and limitations inherent in polling methods.
As of now, Trump leads Biden in Pennsylvania by 2%, highlighting the significance of this battleground state in future elections. These polling numbers will undoubtedly shape the strategies and campaigns of both candidates as they aim to secure victory in this pivotal state.
