Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden currently leads President Donald Trump by almost 50 points among college students, according to a new poll.

The poll, which was conducted by Chegg/College Pulse election tracking, found that 68 percent of college students said they would vote for Biden if the election was held today, while 19 percent chose Trump. Among the remaining percentages, 6 percent said they would not vote, and 7 percent said other or a third-party candidate.

Chegg/College Pulse's student election tracker has been surveying 1,500 full-time and part-time college students on a weekly basis, which began on April 14. The 1,500 students polled are currently attending a two- or four-year college across all 50 states. The poll did not report a margin of error.

The survey also found that Biden holds the advantage over Trump across all race demographics, with his biggest support coming from Black college students. According to the poll, 81 percent of Black students said they would vote for Biden along with 75 percent of Asian students, 73 percent of Hispanic students and 64 percent of white students.

In comparison, 24 percent of white college students said they would vote for Trump. About 6 percent of Black students, 6 percent of Asian students and 14 percent of Hispanic students also agreed in saying they'd vote for the president.

Along gender lines, the poll found 57 percent of male students and 77 percent of female students saying they'd vote for Biden. About 27 percent of male students and 12 percent of female students sided with Trump.

Chegg/College Pulse has also been tracking college students' predictions for the general election on November 3. The poll's most recent findings show 62 percent of respondents saying that they don't think Trump will be reelected, while 38 percent believe he will be.

The former vice president also leads Trump among all Americans, according to several nationally conducted polls.

A poll recently conducted by The Hill/HarrisX, found 43 percent of respondents saying they'd vote for Biden and 40 percent choosing Trump. This study surveyed 2,850 registered voters from August 2 to August 5 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 1.84 percentage points.

RealClearPolitics' average of several national polls conducted from July 21 to August 5 shows Biden leading by 6.4 points.

It seems Joe Biden is appealing to younger voters...

And, Trump is not!

What second wave? We're still in the first wave. Trump failed to dampen that wave.

How many college students preferred HRC back in 2016 and how many of them actually took the time to vote?  Time will tell.

Has anyone taken a good look at some of the "man on the street" interviews of college kids around the country answering questions about politics and history?

I really feel bad for many of these kids because it is plain as day they have been indoctrinated by their soy boy and leftover from the 60s hippie professors teaching them how to hate this country.

I heard today that the majority of all Americans aged 15 or under are non white. The sands of time are running out on the Republican Party.  Rather than change their malodorous ways they double down on everything that will put them in the dustbin of history over the next couple decades.

Let me get this straight. Have every one of the conservatives commenting above somehow convinced themselves that Trump and the damn gop do not need the support of young voters or women voters or gay voters or any racial minorities to win in 2020 because Trump somehow pulled an inside straight in the Electoral College in 2016 while losing the popular vote by three million votes? Is that it?

I ask because Trump is losing by 10,000,000 votes.

Please do go on insulting all those voters though...
