Harris leads Trump by three points as 2024 election nears

The race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump is tightening as the 2024 election approaches. A new Morning Consult poll shows Harris leading Trump by three points, down from a six-point lead earlier. Harris has strong support among Democrats, with 94% backing her, while Trump has 92% support from Republicans. Among independent voters, Harris's lead has increased to six points, up from four points last week. Despite her overall lead shrinking, Harris has gained ground with younger voters aged 18-34. The poll indicates that Republicans are favored on key issues like the economy and national security, while Democrats lead on health care and climate change.
