Harris ups lead over Trump but presidential race still on knife-edge

Based on unrounded figures, Harris is supported by 46.61% of registered voters, while Trump has 40.48% backing, giving Harris a six-point lead. This is slightly higher than her five-point advantage in a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted from September 11-12.

The latest survey, which has a margin of error of around four percentage points, found that 43% of voters believed Trump had the better approach to the “economy, unemployment, and jobs,” while 41% preferred Harris. This reflects a shrinking gap for Trump on economic issues, compared to a three-point lead in August and an 11-point lead in late July when Harris announced her campaign.

While national polls like Reuters/Ipsos provide insight into the electorate’s views, the US president is ultimately elected through the Electoral College, where results from seven key battleground states are expected to be decisive.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll, conducted online, surveyed 1,029 US adults nationwide, including 871 registered voters. Of those, 785 were considered likely to vote on Election Day. Among likely voters, Harris led Trump by 50% to 44%, although when using unrounded figures, her lead was only five points, similar to her margin among all registered voters.
