US vice president Kamala Harris

Democratic US vice president Kamala Harris held a marginal 46% to 43% lead over Republican former preident Donald Trump, with a glum electorate saying the country is on the wrong track, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Harris’ lead in the six-day poll, which closed on Monday, differed little from her 45% to 42% advantage over Trump in a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted a week earlier, reinforcing the view that the contest is extraordinarily tight.Both polls showed Harris with a lead within the margin of error, with the latest poll showing her ahead just 2 percentage points. The new poll showed that voters have a dim view of the state of the economy and immigration – and they generally favour Trump’s approach on these issues. Immigration ranked as the No. 1 issue when respondents were asked what the next presidenf should focus on most in their first 100 days in office. But Trump fared poorly on the question of political extremism and threats to democracy. She also led on abortion and healthcare policy.
