The state of Pennsylvania will be crucial for the candidate that wants to win the presidency this November. On Tuesday, a new poll from Monmouth University showed that Joe Biden tripled his lead in the state among likely voters.
After a previous poll from the same outfit had found a close race, Biden is now found ahead by 12 points, and cresting the 50-percent mark.

Trump began to panic after learning that he was losing to Biden by double digits in a state that gave him 20 electoral votes in 2016.
How does Biden lead in Pennsylvania Polls when he is against Fracking (JOBS!), 2nd Amendment and Religion? Fake Polls. I will win Pennsylvania!
