(CNN)As President Donald Trump heads to Florida on Tuesday to officially declare his reelection bid in 2020, he's trailing multiple top Democratic candidates in the battleground Sunshine State, according to a new Quinnipiac poll.

Former Vice President Joe Biden bests Trump in a hypothetical matchup for the general election, by 50% to 41%. This includes 7% of Republicans and 54% of independents in Florida who said they would support Biden against Trump. The general election isn't for another year and a half, but Biden has the highest lead over the President of tested Democratic candidates.

Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont also tops Trump in a hypothetical contest, though with a smaller lead of 48% to 42%.

Other top Democrats are also beating Trump in Florida, according to the poll, albeit by much slimmer margins than Biden and Sanders. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts is leading the President by 4 percentage points (47% to 43%) and Sen. Kamala Harris of California, former Rep. Beto O'Rourke of Texas and South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg are all up by only 1 percentage point against Trump in their hypothetical head-to-head matchups, which amounts to holding no real advantage.

2. Please stop assuming they haven't already fixed the next election too.

It's not who votes, that counts. It's who counts the votes.

They rigged 2016 and they're going to do it again.

This is why we must impeach and prosecute.

4. While I do agree with impeachment, the Senate will never remove him.

We MUST vote in overwhelming numbers in 2020. It’s our only hope of ousting this Menace.

3. If that's your mindset, why even vote?

Defeatist attitudes won’t help us.

7. I think that post was in response to another post, not yours

As to the rally, I hope someone mentions that Trump's interview on Sunday drew lower ratings than 60 Minutes.

6. I never really trusted Quinnipiac polls.

They lean to the right.

10. I read this poll off to my deplorable co worker today and said even Mayor Pete is beating him. I

said think about it..he hasn't gained any support only lost it so he is in trouble. He also AGREED that rump is doing a terrible job. I almost died...today is the first admission he has made like this about rump.
