CNBC: majority of swing state voters say both candidates mentally unfit

https://apple.news/A6Oq44ZwvTDSi-Iu4BJf3KQ

I guess Trump’s “Biden in decline” ads had an impact; 52% of swing state voters say Biden is mentally unfit, compared to 51% who see Trump as mentally unfit.

CNBC/Change Research poll of 4100 LV’s in six swing states with 1.4%MOE.

Not sure how this info fits with the Biden leads in these same states. Maybe they oversampled Republicans?

Just checked 538’s ratings: Change Research is rated a C- pollster.

For what it’s worth, here’s a direct link to the survey results:

If more credible polls demonstrate similar results, I'll worry more.

Not factual, they're all over the place, probably a study group or what not

I cannot find any breakdown to political party identification in this poll also, and that I think would be significant

Have a good friend, staunch Dem. feels the same.

Folks who avoided this discussion in the primaries forum fall for that shit.
