AZ-Sen: NYT/Siena Poll Has Kelly (D) Leading McSally (R) 50-39, Biden Beating Trump 49-40
Here’s the latest news today out of Arizona courtesy of the New York Times/Siena latest poll. First, the presidential race:
Mr. Biden leads Mr. Trump 49 percent to 41 percent in Arizona, with just 6 percent of likely voters saying they were undecided, according to the survey, which was taken before and after the president announced that he had tested positive for the virus that causes Covid-19 but after his caustic debate performance last week. The poll has a margin of error of 4.2 percentage points.
The results are essentially unchanged from a Times-Siena poll of the state last month, which found Mr. Biden leading 49 percent to 40 percent. The poll illustrates the depth of Mr. Trump’s difficulties in Arizona — an incumbent Republican president trailing by a significant margin a month before an election in which most voters have made up their minds.
Next, the U.S. Senate race:
The G.O.P.’s challenge in Arizona this year runs beyond the presidential race. The retired astronaut Mark Kelly, a Democrat, is leading Senator Martha McSally, a Republican, 50 percent to 39 percent in the Times-Siena poll, a slightly larger advantage than in last month’s survey. Mr. Kelly was winning 50 percent to 42 percent in September.
The same constituencies lifting Mr. Biden — women, younger people and Latino voters — are also propelling Mr. Kelly.
