St. Anselm College 6/13-6/16 1072RV, 33D/35I/31R Biden 49, Trump 42 >6weeks  
Political Ref's Take on the above poll The D+2 is a bit high for Democrats. Adjusting the reported 33D/35I/31R to 28D/44I/28R that voted in 2016. According to the data, Biden won D's 90-4, I's 48-39, and Trump won R's 86-8. Allocating these ratios within each party to a party distribution of 28D/44I/28R, results in Biden 48.6 to Trump 42.4. It is very important to remember that this is also a registered voter poll which means it includes many people who will not vote, and this group disproportionately votes Democratic. The margin between Biden and Trump is likely closer than our adjusted result. Biden 48.6., Trump 42.4   >6weeks
