Former Vice President Joe Biden has a several point advantage over President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, according to polling commissioned by this well known liberal website

A Civiqs online poll commissioned by DailyKos of likely voters in the state shows Biden leading Trump by 7 points, 52%-to-45%, while 2% said they would vote for someone else, and 1% said they were unsure. 

According to analysts at FiveThirtyEight, Civiqs has an overall B/C grade. 

While Biden leads Trump by 7 points, both presidential candidates’ favorability ratings are under water.
