Kamala Harris mit leichtem Vorsprung vor Trump in neuer Umfrage
July 24, 2024 - US Vizepräsidentin Kamala Harris eeröffnete den Wahlkampf mit einem zwei-Punkte Vorsprung vor dem Republikaner Donald Trump nachdem Präsident Joe Biden seinen Plan einer Wiederwahl aufgegeben hat.
That compares with a marginal two-point deficit Biden faced against Trump in last week's poll before his Sunday exit from the race.
The new poll, conducted on Monday and Tuesday, followed both the Republican National Convention where Trump on Thursday formally accepted the nomination and Biden’s announcement on Sunday he was leaving the race and endorsing Harris.
Harris, whose campaign says she has secured the Democratic nomination, led Trump 44% to 42% in the national poll, a difference within the 3-percentage-point margin of error.
Harris and Trump were tied at 44% in a July 15-16 poll, and Trump led by one percentage point in a July 1-2 poll, both within the same margin of error.
