That... that has fuck all to do with the article title.

The actually relevant part:

Asked in a poll to predict who would win, “regardless of who you prefer,” 44 percent said Trump, 35 percent said Biden and 21 percent said they were not sure. They remain split, however, on which candidate they support — with 43 percent supporting Biden and 43 percent supporting Trump.

The most interesting thing, IMO, is that more people think Trump will win than actually support him, while for Biden it’s the opposite.

Thanks. I'm honestly not sure how much I trust these polls anyway these days. They make for a thrill but for me, this seems pretty thoroughly cut-and-dry.

Don’t trust YouGov, or any news outlet who references them. Or any user who posts shit like this.

This is literally the worst summary bot of all time. It would be better to just take the first two paragraphs of any article. A chimpanzee with a digitizing pen could do better.
