In a recent Wall Street Journal poll, former President Donald Trump holds a slim two-percentage point lead over Democratic US Vice President Kamala Harris. The poll, released on Saturday, showed Trump leading Harris 49% to 47%, reflecting a tighter race compared to earlier surveys.
The poll, which surveyed 1,000 registered voters, has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.This narrow lead for Trump contrasts with a six-point advantage he held over President Joe Biden in a previous survey earlier this month. Since that time, Biden has withdrawn from the presidential race, shifting the focus to a potential matchup between Trump and Harris.
Trump’s narrow edge over Harris suggests a highly competitive race as the 2024 presidential election approaches.
The survey’s findings come at a critical juncture, as both candidates are working to consolidate their support bases and appeal to undecided voters. Trump’s lead, although narrow, highlights his enduring appeal among a significant portion of the electorate. For Harris, the challenge will be to close the gap and solidify her position as the Democratic nominee in the face of a strong Republican challenge.
