Biden widens lead over Trump in opinion polls
Fresh opinion poll by Reuters/Ipsos shows that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has widened his lead against President Donald Trump in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
The two states are crucial in determining the winner of November’s election.
The poll result showed the former vice president leading Trump by 7 percentage points in both states.
A week earlier, Biden was up by 6 points in Wisconsin and by 5 in Pennsylvania.

I think part of the reasons Biden has higher leads is probably because of Trump's unguarded utterances and arrogance towards other powerful countries which has almost sparked war drums and coupled with the fact that the US is the worst hit of the Coronavirus pandemic under Trump's watch.
