    President Biden has opened up a 6 point lead
    in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up with
    former President Trump, new polling shows,
    amid signs of a growing gender gap in support
    for the two party front-runners.

    A new Quinnipiac University national poll
    found Biden with 50 percent support among
    registered voters, ahead of Trump’s 44 percent.

    That’s a shift in the incumbent’s favor from
    December, when Quinnipiac found the same
    Biden-Trump hypothetical “too close to call,”
    with Biden at 47 percent support and Trump
    at 46 percent.

    Biden also scored majority support among
    independents in the latest findings, with 52
    percent support to Trump’s 40 percent.

    The poll additionally found a growing gender
    gap when it comes to support for the current
    and former presidents as they each run for
    a second White House term.

    Fifty-eight percent of women say they support
    Biden, up from 53 percent in December.

    This is great news, as long as it drills down to the "swing" states. National polls don't matter. Biden could have a 10 point lead nationally, but if he is underwater in too many of the swing states, it won't matter. That is the evil of
    the electoral, college. Hypothetically a candidate could win 70% of the national
    popular vote, yet still lose the election due to the perversity of the electoral
    college. That is bad and wrong. That would not be a just and legitimate outcome.

    Wait six months and see what the polls show then. By then, Trump may be a felony
    convict (which he ought to be).
