In a major development for the 2024 presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris has surged ahead in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. According to recent polls by the New York Times and Siena College, Harris now commands a four-point lead over former President Donald Trump in these critical battlegrounds.
The significant shift follows Harris’s ascension to the top of the Democratic ticket, marking a dramatic turnaround in the race. The polls, conducted August 5-9, revealed that Harris has not only solidified her position in these states but is also leading in Arizona and Nevada. Harris’ favorability ratings have seen a notable increase, with voters viewing her as more intelligent and temperamentally suited for the presidency compared to Trump.
Her choice of Governor Tim Walz as her running mate has further boosted her standing among Democrats. While Trump maintains an advantage on economic and immigration issues, Harris is seen as the more trustworthy candidate on matters of abortion and democracy.
