All advised, 50 % of voters mentioned they’d vote for Mr. Biden in a head-to-head matchup, and 41 % mentioned they’d vote for Mr. Trump. In an April Monmouth ballot, Mr. Biden led the president by simply 4 factors; in March, he led by three.

By two-to-one, independent voters were more likely to say it was true (43 percent) than to say it wasn’t (22 percent).

Mr. Biden was still seen more favorably over all than Mr. Trump: 41 percent of voters saw him favorably, while 44 percent saw him unfavorably. The president was seen positively by just 40 percent of voters, and negatively by 53 percent.

In a hypothetical three-way race with Justin Amash, a candidate for the Libertarian nomination, Mr. Biden still led Mr. Trump on the ballot — but by seven points, not by nine. Mr. Amash, an independent congressman from Michigan, about whom 81 percent of voters still said they had no opinion, earned 5 percent in that matchup, including 10 percent of independents.
