Former president Trump and Vice President Harris are locked in tight races across the sunbelt, according to the latest polling.
Former president Trump and Vice President Harris are locked in tight races across the sunbelt, according to the latest polling.
Harris was leading Trump by five points in Arizona, with 50% support to his 45%, and by two points in North Carolina where she led by a margin of 49% to his 47%, the new survey from New York Times/Siena found.
The latter figure is particularly concerning for Republicans, as Trump carried North Carolina in both his 2016 and 2020 contests.
Arizona and North Carolina had each been increasingly considered runaways for Trump during polling taken when President Biden was at the top of the ticket.
The poll surveyed 677 registered voters in Arizona between Aug. 8 and Aug. 15; 661 voters in Georgia and 655 in North Carolina from Aug.
