Former President Donald Trump holds a significant lead over President Joe Biden in Iowa, according to a new poll by Ann Selzer, a highly respected pollster. The poll shows Trump leading by 18 points, a substantial increase from his 8-point victory in 2020. This shift is notable given that Iowa was previously won by former President Barack Obama by 15 points in 2008 and 5 points in 2012. The poll also indicates that Biden's approval rating in Iowa is at a low 28%. The results suggest that if Trump maintains this lead, he could also be in a strong position in other key states like Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Selzer poll is considered a gold standard in Iowa, making these findings particularly significant for the upcoming 2024 election. The poll results show Trump leading 50-32, marking it as the worst poll for Biden.
