Harris and Trump Neck-and-Neck as Election Day Approaches

 


With just days remaining until the 2024 U.S. presidential election, the race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump is incredibly tight. Recent polls indicate a virtual tie, with both candidates vying for crucial swing states that could determine the outcome.

In Pennsylvania, a CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows the race is tied, while a Quinnipiac University poll gives Trump a slight edge. Nationally, the latest TIPP Tracking Poll also shows both candidates at 48% support. Harris maintains a narrow lead in Michigan and Wisconsin, according to CNN polls.

Both candidates are making their final appeals to voters in key battleground states. Harris is focusing on economic issues and job creation, while Trump is emphasizing his stance on immigration and appealing to religious voters. Early voting numbers have reached unprecedented levels, with millions of Americans already casting their ballots.

As Election Day approaches, the outcome remains uncertain, with both campaigns working tirelessly to secure a victory on November 5.
