The latest New York Times/Siena College poll shows Trump leading Biden 48%-44% among likely voters.
The numbers show Biden lagging not only with his 2020 supporters but also female voters.
Biden also has to overcome doubts about the economy, as 50% of voters in the poll called it "poor."

Eight months ahead of the general election, President Joe Biden remains in a precarious position as he continues to trail former President Donald Trump in a rematch among likely voters, according to the latest New York Times/Siena poll.
