<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that <a href="https://openlife.ng/">United States of America President</a>, Joe Biden, has pulled equal poll with his Republican challenger, Donald Trump, this week, in the race to win the November 5, election.</p>
<p>This development, according to reports from <a href="https://openlife.ng/">Reuters</a>, is a sign that the contest remains close even after a widely favourable debate performance by the Democrat.</p>
<p>Biden and Trump each had 40% support among registered voters in the two-day poll that concluded on Tuesday.</p>
<p>A prior Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted June 11-12 showed Trump with a marginal 2 percentage point lead, 41% to 39%.</p>
<p>The two faced off in a televised debate last Thursday, where Biden stammered throughout and failed to challenge Trump&#8217;s attacks.</p>
<p>The new Reuters/Ipsos poll also showed that, following the debate, about one-in-three <a href="https://www.vanguardngr.com/">Democrats</a> think Biden should drop out of the race, something he has pledged not to do.</p>
<p>The poll, which gathered responses online and nationwide from 1,070 U.S. adults, had a 3.5 percentage point margin of error for registered voters, many of whom remain on the fence with about four months left before the Nov. 5 election.</p>
<p>One in five registered voters said that they weren&#8217;t sure for whom to vote, that they would pick a different candidate or that they would not vote at all.</p>
<p>The latest poll did not include a question on support for independent candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. The June poll found that 10% of registered voters would back him if he appeared on the ballot.</p>
<p>While nationwide surveys give important signals on American support for political candidates, just a handful of competitive states typically tilt the balance in the U.S. Electoral College, which ultimately decides who wins a presidential election.</p>
<p>Both candidates carry significant liabilities.</p>
<p>For Biden, these include concerns about his age &#8211; 81 &#8211; that were magnified by his debate performance.</p>
<p>The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 83% of Democrats and 97% of Republicans agreed with a statement that in the debate,<em><strong> &#8220;Biden stumbled and appeared to show his age.&#8221;</strong></em></p>
<p>Only 58% of Democrats and 11% of Republicans had the same assessment of Trump&#8217;s debate performance.</p>
<p>Trump, 78, in May became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime, whether in office or after leaving the <a href="https://openlife.ng/">White House</a>.</p>
<p>He is scheduled to be sentenced in September and faces potential prison time after a jury found him guilty of 34 charges stemming from a hush money payment to an adult film actress before the 2016 presidential election.</p>
