The gender gap is growing between supporters of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll of registered voters.

And that’s good news for the Democratic incumbent: Biden holds a slight lead over Trump in Wednesday’s 2024 presidential election poll, 50 percent to 44 percent. The same matchup was “too close to call” just a month ago.

More women said they would support Biden over Trump in this latest survey, with 58 percent backing Biden and 36 percent backing Trump. Last month, the Quinnipiac poll found 53 percent of women supported the incumbent Democrat, compared to 41 percent for the Republican challenger.

The numbers were relatively unchanged for men — 53 percent of men said they’d vote for Trump and 42 percent chose Biden in the latest poll, compared to 51 percent for Biden and 41 percent for Trump in December.

    I am truly shocked Trump is getting that much support. It is disgusting as I am near certain most of these voters would never want to live in places like China or North Korea, yet here they are voting for that oppression. Sure a small percentage of them will benefit greatly, but most will suffer when leadership is as narcissistic and self serving as Trump. Insane.

      Remind me which party is doing their best to get rid of free speech and prosecuting their main political rival again?

          Republicans are the ones calling for censorship? Republicans were the ones that started cancel cul…sorry - “holding people accountable”? Republicans are the ones prosecuting their main political rival currently?

        Don’t break the law, or start an insurrection. That was too hard for Trump though. Trump has also claimed he’ll be a dictator for just one day.

            Not very funny when he literally started a coup.

                Lol Jan 6 people were only there for a tour? All the fake electors him and his team recruited were as a joke? Don’t let the truth get in the way of a bad lie man.

                  They weren’t there to overthrow the government, that’s for sure. Not a single gun, no hostages taken, no demands…just selfies.

                    Why are several hundred in jail? Why did they all commit felonies? Why did they stop an election process? Why did Republicans call it an insurrection? Also they did demand pence deny votes, there was a bomb planted, and many had zip ties and there wad an officer killed.
