This week’s US presidential election polls point to Democrat Kamala Harris just a few points ahead of Republican Donald Trump.
In the Morning Consult poll, for example, she has 48% of voting intentions, while Trump appears with 44%. The poll was conducted ahead of the Democratic National Convention, an important event for Kamala’s campaign. In all, 11,501 people were interviewed between August 16 and 18, and the margin of error is one percentage point.
The survey points out that Kamala is the favorite among young and black voters. She has 72% of black voting intentions and 50% of young people aged between 18 and 34. Trump, in turn, scored 21% and 40%, respectively.
The Democrat’s popularity has reached the highest level since the beginning of the campaign – 50% are in favor of Harris, while 45% are against. Trump, on the other hand, has negative approval by five percentage points.
