Recent public opinion polls indicate that Harris is ahead by margins ranging from 2 to 5 percentage points, though several results fall within the margin of error. This represents a change from earlier in the week when both candidates were nearly tied. A Reuters\/Ipsos poll, conducted after the debate, shows Harris leading Trump by 5 points at 47% to 42%, which is a slight increase from a poll taken after last month&#8217;s Democratic National Convention. The margin of error for this poll was 3%. Additionally, it revealed that 53% of viewers believed Harris performed better in the debate compared to just 24% who thought Trump did.<\/p>\n<p>In Berkeley, California, on September 10, people gathered outside the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive to watch the presidential debate between Trump and Harris. A Morning Consult survey conducted on September 11 found Harris ahead with support from 50% of likely voters compared to Trump&#8217;s 45%, with a margin of error of \u00b12 percentage points; most respondents also felt that Harris won the debate. Similarly, a Yahoo\/YouGov poll taken shortly thereafter showed her leading at 50% versus Trump&#8217;s 45%, with an error margin of \u00b12.9%. This marked an improvement for Harris compared to an earlier Yahoo\/YouGov poll where she led by just one point (47% to Trump&#8217;s 46%) following the Democratic National Convention.<\/p>\n<p>A Leger poll involving over a thousand likely voters conducted between September 10 and September 11 indicated that Harris was ahead at a rate of about 47% against Trump&#8217;s approximately 44%, with an error margin of \u00b12.72 percentage points. While these national surveys provide valuable insights into voter sentiment overall, it&#8217;s important to note that state-by-state results will ultimately determine who wins in the Electoral College. Notably, Trump appears to be maintaining support in North Carolina\u2014a key battleground state\u2014where he led with approximately48.4% against Harris&#8217;s roughly46%, according to a Trafalgar Group poll released on Saturday following their debates on September11 and12<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2657,"featured_media":2341224,"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\/09\/trump-harris-kroger-lawsuit.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[34059,4021,40916,3634,32076],"class_list":["post-2341223","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-election-2024","tag-harris","tag-post-debate-polls","tag-trump","tag-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/trump-harris-kroger-lawsuit.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2341223","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\/2657"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2341223"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2341223\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2341224"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2341223"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2341223"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2341223"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
