The survey, which is released three weeks ahead of the Election Day in the US, shows the declining popularity of Kamala Harris in a month’s time as she has given away 5% lead which she had in September. Last month, Harris was being supported by 49% of electorates who participated in the survey while Trump remained at 44%.

“As summer has turned to fall, any signs of momentum for Kamala Harris have stopped, the race is a dead heat,” said Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt, who conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff.

At a time when the world is facing hostilities across West Asia, Russia-Ukraine and other regions, the US Presidential poll becomes the greatest match-up for the outcomes of the war and the ceasefire process, since the US plays a larger role in backing Ukraine and Israel.

According to the survey, Harris maintains her big advantages over Trump among the Black voters (84%-11%), young voters aged 18 to 34 (57%-37%), and white voters with college degrees (55%-41%).

Meanwhile, the former President Trump leads in rural voters (75%-23%), white voters (56%-42%) and whites without college degrees (65%-33%).

Though interestingly, the decline among the popularity of Kamala Harris reported between September and October comes mainly from the independent and young voters.
