Harris is leading Trump in the Blue Wall states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, according to new polling.
Donald Trump has suffered a blow to his campaign, with three new polls indicating he trails opponent Kamala Harris in key battleground states crucial for his path to victory.
According to the latest set of Marist polls, conducted between October 27 and 30, Harris is leading Trump in the Blue Wall states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Polls have been very tight in all three states, with FiveThirtyEight’s poll tracker currently showing that Harris leads Michigan and Wisconsin by less than a point, while Trump leads Pennsylvania by 0.7 points—after Harris was previously leading him in the state.
Meanwhile, individual polls in all three states have fluctuated, with candidates generally staying within a 3-point margin. However, the four latest surveys from Pennsylvania indicate Trump holding a lead of 1 to 3 points among likely voters.
But the latest Maris polls show a more positive outlook for the current vice president, with Harris ahead by 3 points in Michigan, and 2 points in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Her lead in all 3 states is within the survey’s margin of error of ±3.3 percentage points.
It comes as Harris has opened up a lead among independent voters in all 3 states, according to the poll. In Michigan, she leads Trump among independents by 6 points, up from 2 points in the previous Marist poll from September.
