Polls show tight race in key swing states for 2024 election

In the race for the 2024 election, polls show a tight contest between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris in key swing states. Harris leads in the Upper Midwest and Nevada, while Trump has an advantage in the Southeast and Arizona. The overall polling average gives Harris a slight edge of 1.4 points nationally. Pennsylvania remains a critical battleground, with polls indicating it is essentially a tossup. Harris became the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden withdrew from the race in July. This change has altered the dynamics, as previous polls showed Trump leading against Biden in many battleground states.
