Trump And Kamala Separated By Single Point?

Recent polling from battleground states Georgia and North Carolina reveals a tightly contested race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. According to a survey released Thursday by CNN and conducted by SSRS, Trump leads Harris by a narrow margin of 1 point in Georgia, with 48% support compared to her 47%. Conversely, in North Carolina, Harris edges Trump by the same margin, 48% to 47%. These results highlight a statistical tie, as both leads fall within the polls’ margin of error.

The polls show minimal movement since previous surveys, underscoring the competitiveness of these pivotal states. Notably, a significant number of voters have already cast their ballots—59% in Georgia and 52% in North Carolina. This early voting trend may be a crucial factor in the upcoming election.

Breaking down voter demographics, Harris enjoys strong support among Black voters, garnering 78% in North Carolina and 84% in Georgia. Additionally, she has an edge among white college-educated voters, with 55% in Georgia and 53% in North Carolina. However, Trump significantly outperforms her among white voters without college degrees, leading 81% to 15% in Georgia and 65% to 31% in North Carolina.

When it comes to key issues, voters in both states express greater trust in Trump regarding immigration, foreign policy, and economic matters. While Harris is favored on abortion, opinions are split on issues related to democracy, indicating a complex landscape of voter priorities.

These insights come just after a set of polls indicated Harris leading Trump by 6 points in Wisconsin and by 5 points in Michigan. Nationally, she holds a slight advantage of 0.8 percentage points. The results from Georgia and North Carolina, based on surveys conducted from October 23-28, are crucial as both parties strategize for the crucial electoral battle ahead.
