美国2020总统大选最新变数：特朗普的支持率被对手持续超越

With the Democratic primary battle now over and the White House race transitioning to a general election showdown, two new national polls show Joe Biden holding a advantage over President Trump.

民主党初选结束，美国大选进入决胜阶段，两份新的全国民调显示跟特朗普总统相比，乔·拜登有个位数的优势。

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee narrowly leads the Republican incumbent 48-44 percent among registered voters in a Monmouth University Polling Institute survey released last Thursday. And Biden leads Trump 48-41 percent in a Quinnipiac University poll released last Wednesday.

蒙茅斯大学投票研究所上周四公布了对登记选民进行的调查，发现最有希望的民主党总统候选人以48%对44%的微弱优势领先现任共和党总统。上周三发表的昆尼皮亚克大学的民调显示，拜登与特朗普的支持率分别为48%和41%。

A third national poll - released by CNN - indicates a wider 53-42 percent lead for the former vice president among registered voters.

CNN公布的第三次国家民调显示，登记选民对这位前副总统的支持率更高，他们二人的支持率分别为53%和42%.

The new numbers in the general election showdown come as Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont – Biden’s last remaining rival in the race for the Democratic nomination – suspended his campaign last Wednesday and acknowledged that the former vice president “will be the nominee.”

美国大选决胜阶段出现这些新数据，是因为佛蒙特州的伯尼·桑德斯参议员，也就是拜登在民主党总统提名中的最后一位对手，上周三退出了竞选，并且他承认这位前副总统“将会被提名”。

Both polls were conducted before Sanders ended his White House bid.

两次民调都是在桑德斯放弃竞选总统之前进行的。

Biden’s slight edge over Trump in the Monmouth University survey is virtually unchanged from late last month, when he topped the president 48-45 percent. Twenty-seven percent of those questioned in the new poll said that the president’s handling of the government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic makes it more likely he’ll win reelection in November, with 31 percent saying less likely and just over a third saying it will make no difference to his reelection.

上个月月末蒙茅斯大学调查发现拜登对特朗普的微弱优势几乎没有什么变化，当时他们的支持率分别为48%和45%。在新的民调中被询问的人中有27%说总统带领政府对新冠疫情采取的应对措施使他更有可能赢得11月份的连任，还有31%的人说会影响到连任，超过三分之一的人说对连任没有影响。
