The end of Scranton Joe?

July 26, 2022

A new poll shows Biden hemorrhaging support in Lackawanna County, which includes his adopted hometown of Scranton.

46% of Lackawanna County voters view Biden “very” unfavorably as of June 2022, up from 28% in July 2020.

The New York Post reports “Biden’s standing in Scranton looks even worse when looking at the ‘swing’ of his favorability, or the cumulative change, which went from a net 22% favorability last year to a -5% deficit, or a swing of 27%.”

NRCC Comment: “Scranton voters have completely abandoned Joe Biden and that shift is going to devastate Matt Cartwright’s chances in November.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Samantha Bullock
