Poll: Biden leads Trump by double-digits among Pennsylvania voters

A new poll by Quinnipiac University released on Wednesday shows former Vice President Joe Biden leading President Trump by 11 points in a head-to-head matchup in Pennsylvania.

By the numbers: Sen. Bernie Sanders also leads Trump in the state, a critical battleground for the 2020 race, by 7 points. Other top Democrats, like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Kamala Harris, and Beto O'Rourke are closer to Trump — landing within the poll's margin of error in their head-to-head matchups.

The poll's head-to-head results:

  • Biden 53%, Trump 42%
  • Sanders 50%, Trump 43%
  • Warren 47%, Trump 44%
  • Buttigieg 45%, Trump 44%
  • Harris 45%, Trump 45%
  • Trump 46%, O'Rourke 44%

The poll's 2020 Democratic primary results:

  • Biden: 39%
  • Sanders: 13%
  • Harris: 8%
  • Warren: 8%
  • Buttigieg: 6%
  • Booker: 5%
  • O'Rourke: 2%
  • Klobuchar: 1%
  • Everyone else: Less than 1%

House Republicans will reclaim their majority in 2022 by offering candidates who are women, minorities or veterans, a memo obtained by Axios says.

Why it matters: The document, drafted by a super PAC blessed by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, names top Democrats to target — Jared Golden of Maine, Matt Cartwright of Pennsylvania and Ron Kind of Wisconsin — and the type of Republican candidates to beat them.

Donald Trump had to be talked out of making an early endorsement in Ohio's 2022 U.S. Senate race, a sign of his eagerness to reengage politically, people familiar with the conversations tell Axios.

What we're hearing: The former president discussed endorsing former state GOP chair Jane Timken last week during a meeting at Mar-a-Lago with RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, but top advisers — including Donald Trump Jr. — urged him to wait.
