Pollster finds 'astounding change' in Democratic electorate since Harris' ascension
Fox News
Enthusiasm about Vice President Kamala Harris running for president has supercharged her campaign and helped her close the gap with Trump within a week.
Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
The former president maintains a 2% lead over Harris in a two-person race, within the Journal’s 3.1% margin of error, indicating Harris has cut into the six-point lead Trump had over President Biden before Biden withdrew from the race last weekend.
When the field expands to include Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other independent and third-party candidates, the gap slips to a slender 1% lead for Trump over Harris, 45% to 44%. Part of that shift resulted from the change in voter demographics as she has galvanized Democrats and brought high levels of enthusiasm into the party.
