Washington: President Donald Trump's campaign is cutting ties with three members of his polling team after grim numbers showing him trailing former vice president Joe Biden in several battleground states were leaked to the media last week, according to several officials with knowledge of the matter.

Days ahead of Trump's official launch of his re-election on Tuesday, the campaign is severing its relationship with Brett Lloyd, Mike Baselice and Adam Geller while keeping pollsters Tony Fabrizio and John McLaughlin.

The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to freely discuss internal moves. The Trump campaign declined to comment. NBC first reported on the campaign's actions.

The news follows reports - first by Politico, and later by the New York Times - on a 17-state internal poll conducted by Fabrizio that showed Trump trailing Biden by double digits in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida and Michigan, where Trump narrowly edged out Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016. The poll also found Trump trailing Biden in several other states that were key to the president's win - Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Georgia - while holding a narrow edge in strongly Republican Texas.
