A poll by The New York Times and Siena College finds that President Joe Biden and Donald Trump are virtually tied. While Trump had 46 percent to Biden’s 45 percent in the latest survey, the gap narrowed from a five-point margin in late February. The Times reports that Biden made gains among those who supported him in 2020 while Trump lost some of his supporters in the last election. The poll found that seven out of 10 voters think Biden, at age 81, is too old to be an effective president while only four out of 10 think the same of Trump, who is 77. There are also signs in the results that Biden’s support of Israel is hurting him with younger voters: Only 4 percent of those under age 45 said they strongly approve of his handling of foreign affairs. Trump, meanwhile, faces some jeopardy from his legal problems. More than half the respondents said the charges he faces in the Stormy Daniels hush-money trial starting Monday are somewhat or very serious.
