Harrisova popularita roste v rezavém pásu

Vice President Kamala Harris has closed the gap on former President Trump in the states that have long been key to the party's 2024 strategy, but had been growing out of reach for President Biden.

Before he suspended his campaign, Biden was trailing Trump by 2.4 percentage points in Michigan, 2.3 percentage points in Wisconsin and 4.4 percentage points in Pennsylvania, per FiveThirtyEight's average of state polls.

A New York Times/Siena College poll out last week found that Harris leads Trump by four percentage points in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan among likel…  y voters in the states.

In 2016, polling underestimated Trump by nine percentage points in polls in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. In 2020, he was underestimated by five points in these states compared to the final vote totals.

Polling offers just a snapshot in time and there are still questions over whether the Harris campaign can sustain its momentum for the next several weeks until Election Day.

But polling shows that her favorability is rising. In Pennsylvania, the Times/Siena poll found that her favorability has grown 10 percentage points over the last month.
