Harris, Trump in poll

Vice President Kamala Harris has recently gained ground against former President Donald Trump in various polling and betting markets, with some platforms showing her tied or even leading. A new Marquette Law School poll indicates that while Harris is preferred by 52% of registered voters nationally, she faces a tight race in Wisconsin where Trump holds a slim 50% to 49% advantage. In Georgia, older voters are particularly pivotal, revealing a tie between Harris and Trump, with this demographic emphasizing issues like Social Security and Medicare as critical to their voting decisions. Harris is also performing well in betting markets, having taken a lead on platforms like Predictit, reflecting a shift in voter sentiment since Biden's withdrawal from the race. With the election cycle heating up, candidates are urged to address the concerns of older voters, who represent a significant portion of the electorate. As the campaign progresses, the competition between Harris and Trump is intensifying, particularly in key battleground states.
