US Elections 2024: Latest survey puts Harris over Trump, trends changing every minute

Some bad news for Republican candidate Donald Trump and his followers as survey shows Democrats candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris developing a slight lead over former President Donald Trump.

These are the trends that keep on changing and surveys are therefore not full proof but surveys play a big role in American elections. On average surveys show a virtual dead-heat contest for the White House and close races in all seven swing states, keeping the race wildly unpredictable just one week before Election Day.

Let’s take a glance at the surveys:

Morning Consult’s weekly survey – Harris was leading by three points over Trump. 50%-47%. She led by four points, 50%-46%, in the group’s previous two polls.

ABC/Ipsos survey – The Democrats candidate shown leading Trump by four points, 51%-47%, slightly up from her 50%-48% edge in early October.

CBS/YouGov survey – On its Sunday show, Harris was shown up by 50%-49%, a shift from the vice president’s 51%-48% mid-October lead (the ABC poll had a margin of error of 2.5, and the CBS poll’s margin of error was 2.6).

Emerson College Polling survey (October 23-24) – The survey reports released on Saturday, has the two candidates tied at 49%, after finding Harris leading 49% to 48% one week earlier (the poll has a margin of error of 3). The Emerson’s weekly poll for the first time showed Harris wasn’t leading since August, 2024.

Times/Siena survey – Trump and Harris are deadlocked at 48% among likely voters. According to the survey, the results are “not encouraging” for Harris and the Democrats.

The poll represents a decline in support for Harris since The Times’ previous poll in early October that showed her with a 49%-46% lead over Trump, while at least three surveys over the past week show Trump with a narrow advantage and six others found Harris leading.

CNN/SSRS survey – Showed a downward trend for Harris, who led Trump 48% to 47% in the groups’ September survey, while their poll just after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race found Trump with 49% and Harris with 46%.

Wall Street survey – The registered voter poll out Wednesday (margin of error 2.5)—a shift in Trump’s favor since August, Kamala Harris led 47% to 45%.

Many more surveys conducted across America shows Harris and Democrats ahead of Republican’s Trump. However, the margin is very narrow and cannot be concluded that win of Democrats is final.
