Biden leads Trump 49 percent to 44 percent in the poll conducted by Phoenix-based OH Predictive Insights (OHPI) between May 1 and May 2, after Biden announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for president in 2020. The poll of 600 likely voters has a 4 percent margin of error.
Biden was the only one of the six Democratic 2020 presidential candidates OHPI tested in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup with President Trump with a lead over the Republican incumbent.
Trump leads Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) by five points, 47 percent to 42 percent, former Rep. Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke (D-TX) by six points, 46 percent to 40 percent, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) by nine points, 46 percent to 37 percent, South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg by nine points, 46 percent to 37 percent, and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) by nine points, 48 percent to 39 percent.
“The Internet was barely a thing the last time a Democrat presidential candidate won Arizona,” OHPI’s Mike Noble said in a statement released on Tuesday along with the poll.
“Hillary Clinton’s dedicated significant resources to win Arizona but to no avail. This poll shows Joe Biden could turn Arizona into a true battleground state in 2020,” Noble added.
