The race for the presidency remains statistically tied despite President Biden’s dismal debate performance two weeks ago, a new national NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll finds.

Biden actually gained a point since last month’s survey, which was taken before the debate. In this poll, he leads Trump 50% to 48% in a head-to-head matchup. But Biden slips when third-party options are introduced, with Trump holding the slightest advantage with 43% to 42%.

    Unfortunately that poll is useless in the face of current events then.

    *edit Eh, misread the sentence. Not sure why it didn’t make sense until after posting a comment. Hah. Leaving it above for posterity.
