US Presidential (D-1): The poll that gives Joe Biden a cold sweat -

20 Minutes

  • Each morning, our correspondent in the United States reviews the highlights of the American campaign.

  • For the last campaign weekend, Donald Trump struggled in the swing states.

  • And even though Joe Biden has a big margin in the Midwest, a poll that puts Donald Trump 7 points ahead in Iowa sounds like a warning.

It was the last weekend before Tuesday's vote.

For this final sprint of the US presidential election, Donald Trump toured the swing states, with five meetings in one day, Sunday, while Joe Biden focused on Pennsylvania, a state that had cost Hillary Clinton dearly.

A poll on Saturday brought back bad memories for Democrats.

He gives Donald Trump a 7-point lead in Iowa.

This is exactly the same gap as in 2016, and this poll conducted for the

Des Moines Register

was the only one, four years ago, to see the rise of Donald Trump.

The Republican had done better than expected and won Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania by tens of thousands of votes, which opened the doors to the White House.

While 92 million Americans have already voted - twice as many as in 2016 - Republicans in Texas are trying to overturn 100,000 ballots cast by voters in drive-through cars.

The Texas Supreme Court dismissed them on Sunday, but a conservative federal judge is due to consider the matter on Monday.

In the event of a close ballot, the Republicans could file multiple similar appeals to try to tip the scales in favor of Donald Trump.
