Harris Leads Trump 50% to 48% in Tightest Race Since 2000 as Election Nears

Oct 6, 2024, 02:49 PM

With just one month remaining until Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are locked in the tightest race since 2000. Recent polls show Harris holding a slight lead over Trump nationally, with a margin of 50% to 48%, according to a survey by NPR, PBS News, and Marist. Both candidates are intensifying their campaigns in key swing states, aiming to sway undecided voters in the final stretch. The Trump campaign is working to maximize headline-grabbing potential with just 30 days remaining, including a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where an assassination attempt on his life previously took place. Analysts predict that the election outcome may remain uncertain well after Election Night, with multiple key states potentially undeclared, leading to a potentially tumultuous aftermath.
