Democratic President Joe Biden trails
File photo of Donald Trump and US President Joe Biden at Case Western University and Cleveland Clinic, in Cleveland, Ohio, Sep 29, 2020. in five of the six most important battleground states exactly a year before the US election as Americans express doubts about Biden's age and dissatisfaction toward his handling of the economy, polls released on Sunday showed.
Biden's victories in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - all swing states that Trump carried in 2016 - were instrumental in his 2020 victory. Biden likely would need to carry many of those states again to win re-election."Predictions more than a year out tend to look a little different a year later.
Black voters - a core Biden demographic - are now registering 22 per cent support in these states for Trump, a level the New York Times reported was unseen in presidential politics for a Republican in modern times.
