US Presidential Elections 2024.
Pollsters are having a field day as the run-up to the Democratic National Convention is not posing a pretty picture for Kamala Harris who is contesting the US polls 2024 on a Democrat ticket. According to latest reports, Kamala Harris is lagging behind in the key swing state of Pennsylvania, based on two recently released poll surveys. Meanwhile, another survey has stated that Donald Trump is ahead of the reigning VP at the national level.

What is happening in the 2024 US Poll race as of now?

The US Presidential Elections 2024 intensity has increased to a maximum with the Democratic National Convention 2024 ongoing since Monday, August 19, which has already featured addresses from the likes of Hillary Clinton, the former candidate from the 2016 Presidential polls, along with reigning US President Joe Biden, who was until recently, the ticket holder for the Democrats in the US Polls 2024.

Double trouble for Kamala Harris

The 2024 Presidential Elections poll surveys by conducted by Cygnal and Emerson College for the key swing state of Pennsylvania, saw Harris trailing by one point against Trump. This is a serious bad news for Harris as she needs to find her foothold in the swing states if she wants to stand a winning chance in the US Presidential polls 2024.

If this was bad news, the worse was yet to come, as a Napolitan News Service survey across the country gave a one-point lead to the former US President. This actually puts Harris on the edge just ahead of DNC 2024, since this event will see her accepting the Democratic party ticket officially in a grand reception of sorts.

Harris picking up pace

However, it must also be noted that Harris is slowly finding a grip in the poll race in recent weeks after being suddenly bomb-dropped into the elections after Joe Biden's surprise exit from the ticket. There were some previous surveys that had placed Harris well ahead of Trump, and these current survey setbacks should not damage the Democrat morale as there is a lot of course-correction to be done along the way.
