In Arizona, he said he had watched Kamala Harris\u2019s town hall this week on CNN and described her performance as \u201cpathetic\u201d \u2013 only the latest in a series of personal barbs that the candidates have traded in recent days.<\/p>\n<p>As of Thursday evening, more than 30 million voters had already cast their ballots, according to tracking data from the Election Lab at the University of Florida. While this has broken early vote records in some states, the numbers, so far, are far below those from 2020, when \u2013 amid the COVID-19 pandemic \u2013 more than 100 million voters cast their ballots before Election Day.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-are-the-latest-updates-from-the-polls\">What are the latest updates from the polls?<\/h2>\n<p>A new poll released by the Financial Times (FT) on Thursday showed that Trump has slightly surpassed Harris as the candidate Americans trust most with the economy.<\/p>\n<p>The poll, conducted by the FT and the University of Michigan\u2019s Ross School of Business, found that 44 percent of respondents trust Trump to handle the economy, compared with 43 percent for Harris.<\/p>\n<p>The results suggest that Harris\u2019s economic message has stalled in the final stages of her increasingly close race against Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2024\/10\/23\/trump-vs-harris-whos-leading-in-the-us-election-polls-as-the-vote-looms\">separate analysis<\/a> from FiveThirtyEight\u2019s daily election poll tracker, as of Wednesday, Harris is slightly ahead in the national polls, leading Trump by 1.7 percentage points. However, the long-term trend shows that the race is getting closer, with the gap narrowing from 1.8 points earlier in the week.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Who\u2019s ahead in the national polls?\" aria-label=\"Table\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-tUYmr\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/tUYmr\/32\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width:0;min-width:100% !important;border:none\" height=\"387\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While national surveys provide valuable insights into voter sentiment, the ultimate winner will be decided by the Electoral College, which reflects the outcomes in individual states.<\/p>\n<p>The seven key swing states that could determine the election are Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin, and Nevada. Together, these states account for 93 Electoral College votes.<\/p>\n<p>According to FiveThirtyEight\u2019s daily poll tracker, Harris\u2019s support in Michigan has grown marginally, from less than half a percentage point to 0.7 percent. The vice president is marginally ahead in Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Trump has a slight edge over Harris in Pennsylvania and holds a slightly larger lead in North Carolina, Arizona and Georgia. In Nevada, Trump and Harris are in a dead heat.<\/p>\n<p>However, the results from each state fall within the margin of error of the polls, indicating that the race remains extremely close, and that these swing states could still shift in favour of either candidate.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Who is in the lead in swing state polls?\" aria-label=\"Multiple Pies\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-3hOEf\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/3hOEf\/30\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width:0;min-width:100% !important;border:none\" height=\"589\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-was-kamala-harris-up-to-on-thursday\">What was Kamala Harris up to on Thursday?<\/h2>\n<p>Harris campaigned alongside Obama at an event that also saw performances from Springsteen and filmmaker Perry.<\/p>\n<p>The vice president was the final speaker and she opened her speech praising Obama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you, Mr. President,\u201d she said.

However, he has more recently expressed admiration for Trump, stating last month that the economy thrived during Trump\u2019s presidency. Trump is also expected to hold a rally in Michigan, a key swing state where is only marginally behind Harris. Trump had won Michigan in 2016 but lost it in 2020.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2024\/10\/25\/us-election-11-days-left-what-polls-say-what-harris-and-trump-are-up-to\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eleven days before voters head to the polls, Vice President Kamala Harris has appealed to middle-class America at a rally in Georgia, drawing a crowd of about 20,000.
