Wisconsin, which Biden flipped for Democrats in 2020 after Trump won the state in 2016, is one of the most watched contests ahead of November’s election.
Vice President Kamala Harris has scored one of her largest leads in Wisconsin against former President Donald Trump, according to a poll released on Monday, although the overall race for the critical battleground state remains close.
The survey was conducted by The MassINC Polling Group in the days following the candidates’ first debate on September 10 and found that Harris was ahead in Wisconsin by 7 percentage points, leading Trump 53 to 46 percent in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup.
In a multi-candidate race, where former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Green Party candidate Jill Stein were included on the ballot, Harris was ahead by 6 percentage points, leading Trump 51 to 45 percent. The poll was conducted between September 12 and 18 and includes the responses of 800 likely voters. The poll’s margin of error is 3.
