WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican Donald Trump leads Democratic U.S. President Joe Biden in Pennsylvania, but trails in Virginia, according to a New York Times/Sienna College poll of registered voters conducted in those states on July 9 to 11 and published on Monday.

The polls, conducted before the attempted assassination of Trump on Saturday, show Trump leads Biden 48% to 44% in Pennsylvania, while in Virginia Biden leads Trump 46% to 44%.
