With early voting already in full swing, having seen at least \u200b15 million votes cast, the race\u2064 appears tight, with various polls indicating a \u200dclose contest between the two candidates.<\/p>\n<p>In battleground \u200dstates, Trump seems to hold a slight edge according to some polling averages,\u2064 though other surveys, like the Washington Post\u2013Schar School poll, show both candidates in a dead heat. Each candidate is concentrating \u200dtheir efforts in\u200c crucial states where victory is essential for\u2062 their campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Kamala \u2063Harris is focusing\u2064 on states\u2064 such as Michigan, Pennsylvania,\u200b and Wisconsin, aiming to engage disillusioned Republicans \u200dby campaigning alongside former \u2063Rep. Liz Cheney. Additionally, she plans \u200dto rally support from Black \u2062voters with the assistance of former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, Trump is targeting North Carolina,\u2064 Georgia, and Pennsylvania, where victories could significantly bolster his chances of a \u2063second \u2063term. He also plans to hold rallies in Nevada \u2064and New York.<\/p>\n<p>Polling data\u200d has recently been analyzed to identify which battleground states are most challenging for Harris. Among these states, Arizona has\u200c emerged as the most difficult for \u200bher campaign, with Trump leading in several polls. Georgia follows closely behind, with competitive polling results \u2063indicating that Democrats are actively \u2063trying to mobilize Black voters.<\/p>\n<p>Michigan remains a critical state for\u200b Harris, with <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">fluctuating polling results\u200d showing<\/a>\u2062 her slightly ahead in some surveys \u2062but neck-and-neck in others. North\u200b Carolina and Pennsylvania are also notable\u2063 as\u200b both candidates seek to solidify their positions\u200b there.<\/p>\n<p>As the election date\u2063 approaches and casual voters\u2062 begin to focus on the race, these battleground states will be key to determining the ultimate outcome of the presidential election.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Swing-state scorecard: Harris and Trump in coin-flip contest in battlegrounds<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1841666\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Vice President<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kamala-harris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> Kamala Harris<\/a> and former President<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> Donald Trump<\/a> are running against the clock to convince their supporters to turn out and fence-sitters to back them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>With early voting well underway with at least <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/3196929\/turnout-tracker-where-ballots-cast-early-2024-elections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>15 million votes cast<\/a>, Harris and Trump are locked in a coin-flip contest two weeks out before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/2024-elections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Election Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Some battleground polls, such as the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolling.com\/elections\/president\/2024\/battleground-states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> <em>RealClearPolitics<\/em><\/a>  polling average, show Trump with a slight advantage over Harris, while a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2024\/10\/21\/harris-trump-post-schar-school-poll\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> <em>Washington Post<\/em><\/a><em>&ndash;<\/em>Schar School<em> <\/em>survey shows both candidates tied in the battlegrounds.<\/p>\n<p>Both Harris and Trump are spending the final two weeks stumping in states where they must win.
