Democrats narrow economic gap with Republicans as election nears
Democrats have gained ground on economic issues, narrowing the gap with Republicans as Election Day approaches. Kamala Harris, now leading the ticket, has improved trust among voters, reducing Trump's advantage from 22 points in May to 7 points in recent polls. In key swing states, Harris is now favored on the economy in three states and tied in two others, marking a significant shift. This contrasts with earlier polls showing Trump leading by as much as 13 points in Pennsylvania. Factors contributing to this change include Biden's exit and Harris's focus on capitalism. Voter sentiment has shifted, with some Republicans preferring her steady approach over Trump's unpredictability.
