Fox News poll: Biden extends lead over Trump amid protests

The poll found 50 percent of respondents would vote for Biden, compared to 38 for Trump.
President Donald Trump is trailing his Democratic rival Joe Biden by the widest margin this year, according to a Fox News poll released Thursday.

The poll, conducted from June 13 to 16, found 50 percent of respondents would vote for Biden, compared to 38 for Trump. That's a sharp change from last month's poll, which found 48 percent backing Biden and 40 percent backing Trump.

The poll was conducted amid weeks of protests over race and police brutality, a period where Trump attempted to establish himself as a "law and order" president and threatened federal force to quell demonstrators.

Some 61 percent of respondents disapproved of Trump's handling of race relations, compared to only 32 percent approving. Last month, those figures were at 56 percent and 37 percent respectively.

While just 18 percent of respondents said they or someone in their household participated in the protests after the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minnesota police officer, 57 percent of respondents approved of the protests, compared to 35 percent disapproval.

Before anyone asks, if the gap is this large by November, it can't be overcome by shenanigans.

That said, it's late June.

Fox News polling is R+0.7, say what you will about Fox News but they make relatively good polling assessments.

Hope Biden can maintain the momentum of this election. A major gaffe along the scale of the Comey investigation will still put him in jeopardy.

Fox polling is not home turf polling though, they're legit.

Thanks for the clarification. Thought it skewed more but that's good to hear!

It was surprised me that Fox News polling is highly rated and very good. It's like what's the point to have good polling on a propaganda network. I also think this will get locked because we can't start threads for individual polls.

Don't pretend it's a done deal already, keep pushing everyone you possibly can to vote, etc.
No one said this. Anywhere. People aren't complacent, that's why this poll is what it is, because people are up and pissed off, and intend on voting against Trump in major numbers.
