In the ongoing race for the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris has gained a slight lead over former President Donald Trump, with the gap between the two candidates widening. Mid-September polls indicate that Harris holds an approximate 3.6% advantage, with some surveys suggesting the margin could be as high as 6% among certain demographics.
Harris’ surge is fueled by strong support from key minority groups, including Black, Asian, and Latino voters, as well as an uptick in enthusiasm from Democratic voters. Trump’s voter base remains robust among White voters, but he faces challenges with broader demographic appeal, which is critical for securing the presidency.
Despite Harris’ lead, the race remains tight, with many voters still undecided. The coming months will be crucial in determining whether Harris can maintain her momentum or if Trump will close the gap in this highly competitive election.
