Trump-Harris race neck and neck nationally in new survey, pollster sees ‘warning sign’ for Dems

Poll finds that Trump’s opponents are mainly Harris supporters.

According to a recent survey, former President Trump and Vice-President Harris are neck-and-neck ahead of their first and possibly only debate in Philadelphia next Tuesday. Some pollsters see this as a “warning” sign for Democrats.

According to a NPR/PBS News/Marist National Poll published Tuesday morning, Harris is leading Trump by 49% to 48.8% among registered voters. This race has been tightening since August, when Harris had a 3-point advantage over Trump.

The survey showed that Harris edged Trump by three points among those who said they would definitely vote.

America’s gun owners and concerned citizens must flood Capitol Hill with messages of support for the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act.  Pres. Trump is ready to reverse Biden’s actions, and to restore the full powers of the 2A but he needs YOUR help.  Watch our ad and then stand with the CCRKBA as we pressure Congress into passing this law before the Democrats obstruct Trump.

The poll showed that Trump leads Harris 49% to 46% among Independent voters, a change of 14 points from August, when Harris held an 11-point advantage in a field with multiple candidates such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Republican pollster Whit AYERS told PBS News the shift in independent support was a “warning signal” for Harris’s campaign.

Ayers referred to the initial excitement among Democrats that Harris generated after Biden’s exit from the race.

New York Times/Siena’s latest poll, released on Sunday, also showed that the two candidates were in a dead-heat.

In the poll, Trump seemed to shrug off the enthusiasm of Democrats when Harris entered the race. He received the support of 48 percent of likely voters compared with the 47% of those who supported the vice president.

The NPR/PBS News/Marist National Poll showed Trump to be ahead with Latino voters, 51% against 47% for Harris. This is a 9 point swing since August.

The survey revealed that, on the issue of immigration, a majority of Americans believe Trump is better equipped to deal with the crisis (53% to 46%), the economy (52% – 48%), and the Middle East (51% – 47%). Harris is perceived to be the better candidate for handling the abortion issue. She has 56% of the vote to Trump’s 42 %.
