President Biden's campaign responded to recent polls showing him trailing in key battleground states by dismissing their significance and arguing that the president still has time to persuade voters.
Geoff Garin, one of the Biden campaign's pollsters, said that drawing broad conclusions about the race based on one poll is a mistake. He added that many voters are not paying close attention to the election and have not started making up their minds.
Mr. Garin's comments came as part of the Biden campaign's regular playbook for responding to bad polls. On Monday, Biden aides dismissed the polling industry as inherently broken and reminded supporters of other polls that show Mr. Biden in a better position.
The campaign's aides and allies sought to emphasize how many months remain before Election Day and highlighted the structural and financial advantages the Biden campaign has built while former President Donald J. Trump is tied up in court.

Biden's campaign is in denial. These polls show he's losing ground and needs to change his strategy.

The Biden campaign is desperate and resorting to desperate measures. They know they're losing and are trying to save face.

Trump is the one who's losing ground. He's unpopular and his campaign is in disarray.
