President Trump and Joe Biden are set to appear at dueling televised town hall meetings on Thursday, with a new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll giving a snapshot on where the presidential race stands.

The Trump campaign is set to run about $11 million in ads in the two Midwestern states he won in 2016. But six states continue to dominate the airwaves, with Florida and Pennsylvania topping the list.

At this point, Biden leads nationally and in enough key swing states to reach 270 electoral votes. Still, Trump remains within striking distance in several important places.
