Harris gains slight lead over Trump in Michigan polls as race tightens

forbes.com

Recent polls show Vice President Kamala Harris has gained a slight lead over former President Donald Trump in Michigan, a key state for the upcoming election. The race remains very close, particularly among working-class voters. Harris has improved her support among Black voters and white voters without college degrees since Joe Biden exited the race. However, Trump still leads among some demographics, and support for Democrats among Black voters has declined since 2020. Union endorsements are crucial in Michigan, with the United Auto Workers backing Harris. However, the lack of endorsements from other major unions may impact her campaign. Additionally, the Biden administration's stance on the Israel-Gaza conflict has affected support among Arab-American voters.
