The poll indicates \u2064that Harris and Trump are statistically tied in national and battleground\u2063 state polling, \u2062with\u200d Harris having a slight 1-point edge nationally, which increases to \u20642 points when factoring in third-party candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Before\u2062 recent developments, Trump had a 5-point lead over President Biden. However, since Biden announced he would not seek reelection and endorsed Harris instead, \u2062the dynamics\u200c have shifted. The poll surveyed battleground states such \u200bas Arizona, Georgia, \u2062Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and\u2064 Wisconsin, and revealed significant support from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/dnc-in-panic-mode-trump-seeing-levels-of-minority-support-no-republican-in-50-years-has-reached\/\" title=\"Is the DNC panicking?

The survey indicates that Harris and Trump are nearly tied nationally and in key battleground states, with Harris holding a slight 1-point lead nationwide, which increases to 2 points when factoring in third-party candidates. Previously, Trump had a 5-point advantage over Biden in the same poll conducted before Biden announced two weeks ago that he would not seek reelection and endorsed Harris instead. The battleground states included Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Notably, an increase in black registered voters expressing their intention to &#8220;definitely vote&#8221; could benefit Harris in major cities like Detroit, Philadelphia, and Milwaukee\u2014key areas within the blue wall states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin\u2014as well as Georgia. Conducted from July 30 to August 2, the poll found that 85% of Democratic registered voters indicated they would &#8220;definitely vote,&#8221; up from 81% in an earlier survey on July 18. Among Republicans surveyed during this period, 88% said they would &#8220;definitely vote,&#8221; compared to 90% who responded similarly on July 18. Additionally, last week saw a significant rise among black registered voters declaring they would &#8220;definitely vote,&#8221; with this figure reaching 74%, up from just 58% last month\u2014a notable increase of 16 points. The poll also showed that Harris outperformed Trump among women; while only 43% believed Trump&#8217;s policies would be beneficial for women compared to the majority (70%) who felt positively about Harris&#8217;s policies. However, Trump continued to lead on economic issues and immigration concerns; for instance: only 25% thought they would be &#8220;financially better off&#8221; under a Harris presidency versus the higher percentage (45%) who felt this way about Trump\u2019s potential presidency. When asked who might leave them financially worse off\u201444% pointed towards Harris while only38% chose Trump\u2014and regarding financial stability under each candidate:31 % said it would remain about the same under Harris compared to just17 % for Trump.The CBS\/YouGov findings align closely with averages reported by polling aggregators; RealClearPolitics shows an average national head-to-head lead of approximately1 .2 points forHarris.The survey included3 ,102registered voters nationwide with a margin of error of plus or minus2 .1points<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2652,"featured_media":2318931,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/trump_harris_debates.webp.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[37114,4021,3921,3634,32076],"class_list":["post-2318930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-enthusiasm-gap","tag-harris","tag-poll","tag-trump","tag-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/trump_harris_debates.webp.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2652"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2318930"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318930\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2318931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2318930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2318930"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2318930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
