This represents the largest lead that Biden has ever had over Trump in the FiveThirtyEight polling, which began in March; at that time, Biden had a lead of 3.8 percentage points.

According to the site, Biden began to lead Trump by double digits earlier this month, following the first presidential debate and news of Trump testing positive for COVID-19.

In polling accessed four weeks earlier, FiveThirtyEight had Biden at 50.4% and Trump at 43.6%, or a difference of 6.8 percentage points.
