He even died 10 days before election day

Two new major national polls show that with 10 days until Election Day Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump are deadlocked in the race to succeed President Biden in the White House.

The clock is ticking quickly as the two nominees and their challengers head out into key battleground states this weekend.

Trump starts on Saturday during a rally in Novi, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. Later in the day, he will campaign in another key swing state – Pennsylvania – during a rally in State College, home of Penn State University.

Harris will join forces with the former first lady on Saturday michelle obama arguably the most popular Democrat in the country at a get-out-the-vote rally in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The arrest came two days after the vice president shared a scene in an Atlanta suburb with former President Obama.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential candidate, will make two stops on the Arizona battlefield on Saturday, first in Window Rock and later in Phoenix.

In a sign of how important a role Pennsylvania plays, with 19 electoral votes up for grabs, first lady Jill Biden is campaigning for Harris in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, while progressive champion Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, a two-time runner-up for the Democratic nomination, stumps for Harris in Erie.

On Sunday, Harris plans to visit multiple stores in Philadelphia. Trump will hold a rally at Madison Square Garden in New York, the media capital of the world.

The Trump campaign says the former president, who has long wanted to hold a rally at the legendary New York venue, will make his closing remarks at the rally. The campaign will feature a behind-the-scenes fundraiser for major donors, which will cost $924,600 to access.

You can’t get any closer.

Two major national polls conducted Sunday through Wednesday and released Friday show Harris and Trump deadlocked.

Taking center stage in the headlines is a New York Times/Siena College study that shows the Democratic-GOP presidential candidate share is 48%.

That’s a change from the previous poll conducted earlier this month, when Harris had a slim three-point lead.

A CNN poll found that among likely voters nationwide, the candidate percentage was deadlocked at 47%. A previous poll from late September showed the vice president with a slim, one-point lead.

However, there were warning signs for both candidates in both surveys.

Harris lost her lead over Trump in both polls.

After replacing President Biden at the top of the 2024 Democratic ticket in July, positive ratings of the vice president have increased. However, they have been steadily eroded over the past month.

Another red flag for Harris is polls showing her support among black voters is below Biden’s in the 2020 election.

For Trump, his support among white voters is comparable to his standing in the 2020 election, when he lost the White House to Biden.

The former president still has a significant deficit compared to the vice president when it comes to being trustworthy and caring about people.

Although national polls are closely watched, the race for the White House is not based on the national popular vote. This is a battle for the states and their electoral votes.

And the latest polls in seven key battleground states where razor-thin margins determined Biden’s victory over Trump in 2020 and will likely determine whether Harris or Trump wins the 2024 election are largely within error limits.

Fox News’ latest national poll showed Trump with a two-point lead, but Harris had a 6-point lead among respondents polled in all seven battleground states.

Although there is a margin of error in the polls, there is a clear favorite in the fight for campaign money, which is another important indicator in presidential politics. And this is Harris.

Harris earned $97 million in the first half of October, according to the latest data from the two major parties’ presidential campaigns reported to the Federal Election Commission.

That’s significantly more than the $16 million the Trump campaign raised in the first half of this month.

Both campaigns use a number of affiliates fundraising committees to raise money. And when you include them, Trump closed the gap, but in the first two weeks of this month it dropped from $176 million to $97 million.

The new documents also highlight that Harris’ campaign continues to significantly outspend Trump’s campaign.

In the first 16 days of October, the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign spent between $166 million and $99 million on Trump, with the largest spenders in both campaigns being paid media.

However, Harris ended the reporting period with more cash on hand. As of October 16, she had $119 million in cash on hand, while Trump had $36 million. After including joint fundraising committees, Harris has a cash advantage of between $240 million and $168 million.
