Former Vice President Joe Biden is leading President Donald Trump in four key swing states, a Fox News poll found.

The survey showed Biden marginally edging Trump out in Georgia, North Carolina and Texas — states that all voted for Trump in 2016.

Georgia, which Trump won by six points in 2016, now shows Biden leading 47-45. Biden leads by the same numbers in North Carolina, where Trump won by four points. And in Texas, the two are virtually tied with Biden polling at 45% and Trump at 44%.

A Fox News poll, released Thursday, also showed Biden leading Trump 49-40 in Florida.
