The Yahoo News/YouGov poll conducted from September 9 to 11 shows Biden leading Trump by 10 percentage points among registered voters, up from 6 points following the Republican convention. The poll found that the negative coverage appeared to be eroding Trump's support. Nearly a quarter of independents said the claim that Trump disparaged troops increased their support for Biden, compared to just 9 percent who say the news increased their support for Trump. Voters say Biden would do a better job leading the military than the current commander in chief by the same margin. According to the poll, voters preferred Biden to Trump on nearly every major issue.
