This is the best summary I could come up with:


The presumptive Republican presidential nominee is set to face the incumbent president in November, and polls have so far predicted that the results of the 2020 White House rematch will be tight—with the pair statistically tied or holding only marginal leads in a number of surveys.

However, in three swing states there are signs that Biden has marginally increased his support since participating in the first presidential debate, despite giving what was seen as a poor performance.

During the debate, Biden gave a series of incoherent and confusing responses and appeared to trail off at times without finishing his sentences.

He has since received calls from within his party to end his reelection bid and allow Democrats to install a new candidate for the general election.

Surveys like these are significant due to the Electoral College system, which awards each state a certain number of votes based on population.

But Trump only won there by 1.3 percent of the vote in 2020—his narrowest state win—and North Carolina often elects Democratic governors.


The original article contains 452 words, the summary contains 171 words. Saved 62%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
