The latest survey of likely voters in the three former "blue wall" states from the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison finds Biden nearly doubling his lead in each state compared to last month.
Crucially, Biden is above the 50 percent mark in all three states, while Trump remains mired in the low to mid-40s.
In Michigan, Biden leads by 10 points, 52 to 42. Five percent of voters remain undecided. The same poll from September found Biden with a 6-point advantage.
The poll from Wisconsin finds Biden leading 53 to 44, with 3 percent undecided. Biden's 9-point advantage is up from 4 points in September.
The closest state is Pennsylvania, where Biden leads 52 to 44, with 3 percent undecided. Biden has grown his lead from 4 points in September to 8 points now.
In addition to the former undecided voters breaking for Biden, he also leads big among those who voted third party in 2016 or didn't vote at all. Across the three states, Biden leads 54 to 25 among third-party voters in 2016, with 21 percent saying they'll still support another candidate. Biden leads 64 percent to 29 percent among likely voters in 2020 who did not vote in 2016.
The Democratic nominee is running up the score among voters who have already cast their ballots, taking 87 percent support in Pennsylvania, 75 percent support in Michigan and 73 percent support in Wisconsin. Trump leads among those who will vote on Election Day, but it's not enough to make up the difference, as he takes 57 percent support in Michigan, 59 percent in Pennsylvania and 57 percent in Wisconsin.
There's a massive gender gap, with Biden leading by about 20 points among women across the three states and Trump leading by about 3 points among men.
Biden has a slight 2-point advantage among independents, and he leads by 9 points among suburban voters. Both of those groups broke for Trump in 2016.

The University of Wisconsin-Madison survey of 800 voters each in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania was conducted from Oct. 13 to Oct. 21. The margins of error are 3.98 percentage points in Michigan, 4.2 percentage points in Pennsylvania and 3.73 percentage points in Wisconsin.

As Biden's lead grows Trump's chances diminish...
With Barrett on the Court the potential for the thieving Republican Party to steal the election has gone up.

Agreed, and that stampeding sound you hear is women voters headed towards the polls to vote Democratic. Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham better cheat like hell if they want to win now...
Women and younger voters, who are turning out in historic early voting numbers.
Lady Liberty preparing to launch Trump into outer space.
Wonderful cartoon.
That is laughable and nothing more than wild conjecture.
Why would the ABA give someone who is willing to "steal" an election its highest rating?
Is the ABA just filled with idiots or something?

I assume the ABA's deliberations on Barrett did not include trying to foresee whether or not she would acquiesce to Trump's desire to steal the election.
Since the subject never came up, it was not used , pro or con, in their rating of her.
I don't think you have to be a rocket scientist to figure that the ABA--or any organization giving ratings about qualifications, especially about certain jobs--would take factors like credibility and integrity into consideration.
Please list any reputable source you have for Trump wanting to steal the election, as you claim.
