Last year, national polls were nearly spot on in predicting Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's advantage in the popular vote, but state polls failed to show the state of the race in key battlegrounds such as Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, all states that surveys showed would be Clinton victories. Each state went in favor of Trump, who pulled off a surprising upset of the former secretary of state and beat her soundly in the Electoral College.

The survey also polled Trump against another rumored 2020 candidate, movie-star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. In a head-to-head matchup against Johnson, a Republican, "The Rock" beats Trump by a 42% to 37% split.

PPP surveyed 692 registered voters between May 12 and 14. The margin of error was 3.7 percentage points.
