Kamala leads Trump –

NEW YORK (EFE).— Vice President and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris is ahead of former President and Republican candidate Donald Trump in voting intention in several key states, according to a poll published Tuesday by Morning Consult.

Kamala leads Trump by a wide margin in Michigan, with 53% support to 42%; she also leads by a smaller margin in Arizona, Nevada and Wisconsin, while Trump leads Harris in Pennsylvania (50% support to 46%) and North Carolina, and both are tied in Georgia.

The survey was conducted online between July 24 and 28 among nearly 5,000 registered voters in those seven states, which are considered more relevant than the rest because support for the Democratic and Republican candidates is similar.

Notable advance

According to Morning Consult, Kamala Harris’s notable advance in Michigan comes after support increased among groups where President Joe Biden had performed poorly, such as young voters, Democrats and independents; improvements that extend to the general electorate of key states.

Forty-six percent of respondents have a favorable view of the potential Democratic nominee, five percentage points higher than in the previous poll — when Biden was still a presidential candidate — and those who said they had an unfavorable view have dropped three points, to 50%.
