WH blames pandemic, Russia war on Biden’s dismal swing state poll numbers – By Michael Dorgan (Fox News) / May 14, 2024
‘Why is it that nothing you’re doing to address their concerns is working?’ Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked
The White House is blaming the pandemic and Russia’s war with Ukraine as just some of the reasons as to why President Biden’s poll numbers are lagging in key swing states as he closes out the final year of his current term in office.
White House press secretary Karen Jean-Pierre came up with the excuses at Tuesday’s White House press briefing when Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy quizzed her about Biden’s alarming numbers.
A recent New York Times/Siena College/Philadelphia Inquirer poll found former President Trump ahead of Biden in Georgia, Nevada and Arizona. The poll also found Trump ahead by three points in Pennsylvania and by one point in Wisconsin, among likely voters. Biden leads Trump by one point in Michigan, according to the Times.
The results of the poll were described as “an absolute disaster” by CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten. Biden narrowly won all six critical states in 2020. Should Trump win them in 2024 and hold other states he’d won from that year, he would take back the White House.
