A new poll shows Democratic nominee Joe Biden with a 14 point lead nationally over President Trump, following the first presidential debate last week.

The survey, which was conducted by NBC News and The Wall Street Journal, was taken between Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 and covered 800 registered voters. It had a margin of error of around 3.5 percent.

The results showed 53 percent of respondents said they'd vote for the former vice president, compared to 39 percent for Trump.

It is a very flawed poll. The source is NBC News, which is a red flag. Also, 800 people participated. It is most likely biased to big cities.

The poll was also taken before the announcement about Trump testing positive for COVID-19.

Though a senior administration official told Fox News that, “Early indications are for an extremely good prognosis - but the next 48 hours will be critical.”

Trump has received two doses of Remdesivir so far, an anti-viral drug that has been approved by the FDA to help treat the coronavirus.

Whether it's accurate or not, get out and vote. If possible, get other people to vote too.

A lot of it's propaganda to discourage Trump voters, don't let it work!  I find it impossible to take it at face value, when you see the thundering lack of enthusiasm for Biden and the terrible turnout at the very few events he has held, versus the throngs at Trump events.
