A Fox News poll released Thursday shows former Vice President Joe Biden leading President Donald Trump by 7 percentage points nationally, indicating a steady lead for the presumptive Democratic nominee that is essentially unchanged since July.
The new poll shows Biden in front of Trump 49 percent to 42 percent among registered voters. In July, the Fox News poll had Biden up over Trump by 8 percentage points, holding 49 percent support compared with Trump's 41 percent.
Biden continues to run ahead of the incumbent because of his superior favorability ratings. While Biden holds a 10 percentage point favorability advantage, 53 percent to 43 percent, Trump is underwater by 12 points. A majority of registered voters, 55 percent, view the president unfavorably and 43 percent have a favorable view.
