The results of the latest polls have shaken the U.S. election campaigns.
As the week ended, and as expected, the latest poll results in the U.S. were released.
Polls at the federal level did not show significant changes following the debate between the two rivals.
The ABC poll showed the same 52 to 46 percent lead that Harris had over her opponent before the debate.
However, in the Ipsos and Morning Consult polls, Harris extended her lead to five percent and improved her position.
Respondents had a positive view of Harris’s performance in all polls, and the developments following the debate have created dire conditions for Trump, particularly his falsehoods about immigrants in Ohio have had serious repercussions, making his situation extremely sensitive.
One of the surprising consequences of the debate was Harris’s improved position in the well-known University of Michigan poll conducted for the Financial Times.
For the first time, in the previous poll by this university, Harris was shown to be more favorable than Trump in terms of economic performance, and following the debate, this lead has increased, despite the fact that the economy was a specific topic in the debate where Trump showed less weakness.
The poll results in specific states are also highly noteworthy, and these are not states that anyone would seriously consider under the current circumstances.
In Iowa, Ann Selzer, the renowned pollster, released her latest poll showing Trump only four percent ahead of Harris. Trump won this state by a ten percent margin in 2020, and in the previous poll three months ago, he was 18 percent ahead of Biden.
In Florida, the polls still indicate a close race between Trump and Harris, and finally, Democrats have taken the first steps to campaign in this state. Florida is the jewel of the U.S. election, and winning there is a dream for Democrats that might be achievable.
Interestingly, the recent poll regarding the Senate race in this state showed the Democratic candidate only one percent behind their Republican opponent, who is the state’s senator.
Polls in Texas, with the release of a new poll showing Harris three percent behind Trump, have shown the situation to be more sensitive than expected. It remains to be seen whether Democrats will be tempted to try for a win in this state or choose not to risk the expense and extensive campaigning.
What caught the attention of observers, experts, and even bettors was the poll results in a state no one thinks about. In Alaska, which has been a Republican stronghold, a recent poll showed Harris only five percent behind her opponent, a much narrower gap than expected.
Hot days are ahead, and with just one or two polls, Harris and the Democrats’ chances in these particular states cannot be taken seriously.
Nevertheless, any positive development in these circumstances is valuable for Harris.
