Former President Donald Trump is leading by six points in Arizona, while Vice President Kamala Harris leads by four points in Pennsylvania, according to new polls from the New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, and Siena College. The poll of over 1,600 voters in these swing states highlights the close nature of the presidential race as both candidates strive to win over undecided voters. Trump’s strong support in Arizona is attributed to concerns about the economy, while Harris’ lead in Pennsylvania is mainly due to her stance on abortion. Despite Harris’ lead being within the margin of error, it has been consistent in polling for months. Pennsylvania, with its 19 electoral votes, is considered a crucial battleground state in this election.
Trump has an 11-point lead over Harris in Pennsylvania on the economy, while maintaining a six-point lead in Arizona. Both campaigns are pouring significant resources into Pennsylvania, with around $350 million spent on television ads in the state. Campaign stops by Harris, Trump, and outside groups are frequent in Pennsylvania as the election approaches. Harris is trusted by Pennsylvania voters over Trump to handle the issue of abortion by a 20-point margin. The state is crucial in determining the outcome of the election, with both candidates vying for victory in this key battleground state.
