Joe Biden and Donald Trump will go head to head for the White House on November 3, with polls showing the Democrat has a solid lead
Democratic challenger Joe Biden is currently leading Donald Trump in the national polls as the US approaches its 2020 presidential election.
The 10-poll average indicates that just over half of Americans intend to back Joe Biden while Mr Trump’s support trails this by around seven or eight points.
Americans will vote on Tuesday, November 3, in order to elect their next president, either giving Mr Trump another four years or handing over the keys to the White House to Mr Biden.
Mr Trump triumphed in 2016 despite losing the popular vote, and pollsters misjudged the size of his support, so despite Mr Biden's lead it is still difficult to predict who will win the keys to the White House.
Who is in the lead for president 2021?
According to the latest polling averages, Joe Biden's lead over the incumbent is remaining solid, despite a slight downfall in the wake of the US presidential debates and Donald Trump's diagnosis with coronavirus.
Mr Biden's polling average has remained above 50 per cent since October 4, and the Democratic nominee has consistently polled in the lead since the race began.
