In a surprising turn of events, former President Donald Trump has managed to gain ground on President Joe Biden in the June I&I/TIPP Poll for the 2024 presidential election. This comes despite Trump’s recent conviction on 34 felony counts in a trial presided over by a judge known to have donated to the Biden campaign.
The latest poll data indicates a tightening race between the two candidates, with Trump’s support showing resilience in the face of legal challenges. This development is particularly noteworthy given the political climate and the ongoing legal proceedings against Trump.
The I&I/TIPP poll, conducted in June 2024, shows Trump narrowing the gap with Biden. The poll results suggest a significant shift in public sentiment, with Trump’s support base remaining strong despite the recent conviction. This resilience is seen as a testament to Trump’s enduring popularity among his base and the broader conservative electorate.

The trial, which took place in a left-wing district, was presided over by a judge who is a known donor to the Biden campaign. This has led to accusations of bias and political persecution among Trump supporters and some conservative commentators. However, the legal proceedings have not deterred Trump’s supporters, who remain steadfast in their backing of the former president.
