Poll shows a tie between Trump and Harris in the final stretch of the 2024 elections

• Trump and Harris tied in polls.
• Trump’s support grows after debate.
• Harris’s popularity drops by 5 points.

With only three weeks left until Election Day, the presidential race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is tighter than ever.

The latest NBC News poll shows that both candidates are tied, each receiving 48% of support from registered voters.

This tie marks a significant shift, as previous polls showed Harris with a slight lead over Trump.

Trump’s resurgence is driven by renewed support from Republicans following last month’s debate.

Donald Trump’s gains and Kamala Harris’s drop in popularity

Additionally, voters have given a more favorable assessment of Trump’s tenure as president.

Only 4% of voters remain undecided or say they would not vote for either candidate.

On the other hand, Kamala Harris has seen a decline in her popularity, with her approval rating dropping from 48% to 43%.

Negative views of Harris have increased to 49%, particularly among younger voters and independents.

Donald Trump, with a 43% approval rating and 51% negative views, has reached his highest performance in an NBC News poll since leaving office.

The poll also reveals a significant gender gap between the two candidates.

Harris leads among women and younger voters, with 57% support from that group.

Trump, meanwhile, enjoys strong backing from rural voters and men without college degrees, with 65% in his favor.

Abortion is a key issue swaying voters towards Kamala Harris, while those prioritizing nationalist foreign policy and economic issues lean towards Trump.

Voter turnout could be the deciding factor, with different turnout scenarios favoring one candidate or the other.

If rural and non-college-educated white voters turn out in higher numbers, Trump would edge out Harris by 2 points.
