Former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden among independents, an I&I/TIPP Poll, released Monday, found.
The overall survey showed Biden and Trump virtually tied in a matchup with third-party candidates included, with Biden garnering 39 percent support and Trump seeing 38 percent support. Another 12 percent chose independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., followed by one percent for independent candidate Cornel West and one percent for Green Party candidate Jill Stein.
The survey also showed independents favoring Trump over Biden in a head-to-head race by a five-point margin, although 15 percent remain unsure. The margin for Trump among independents only grows when third-party candidates are included, leading Biden with 33 percent to 25 percent — an eight-point margin. Eighteen percent go to RFK Jr., followed by two percent for West and Stein, each.
