Sep 1, 2024, 03:38 PM

A recent ABC News/Ipsos poll indicates that Vice President Kamala Harris holds a 6-point lead over former President Donald Trump in the national race, with Harris garnering 52% support compared to Trump's 46% among likely voters. The poll, conducted after the Democratic National Convention, shows no significant post-convention bounce for Harris, albeit with a wider gender gap. She maintains a slight lead in six out of seven key battleground states, although the race remains statistically tied in these states, highlighting the competitive nature of the upcoming election. Despite Harris's lead, Trump is perceived to have an advantage on key issues such as the U.S.-Mexico border, the economy, and inflation.
