A month ago, the magnate had a 5-point lead. The results of this survey show that Biden's advance is due to his better position among traditional Democratic voters.
Most voters think that Biden, 81, is too old and that Trump, 77, has committed serious federal crimes. Trump will move part of his presidential campaign this weekend to New York, where on Monday he will face a criminal trial for falsifying business documents to help cover up an affair with a porn actress. The trial is not expected to be televised, but there will be a great media expectation that will "camp out" both in front of Trump Tower and near the Manhattan Criminal Court. According to Axios, his campaign will make comments to the media about the election while Trump is in court. The NYPD will close off areas, increase security cameras and monitor social media to try to detect any threats, according to CNN. The New York Times/Siena poll has a margin of error plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.
