According to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, Vice President Kamala Harris leads former President Donald Trump by 45% to 41% among registered voters in the upcoming November 5 election.

This marks an increase from her previous 1-point lead in July, according to the publication.

The poll, conducted over eight days and with a 2-point margin of error, is said to show that Harris is gaining significant support among women and Hispanic voters.

She now leads Trump by 13 percentage points in both demographics, up from smaller leads in July, Reuters said.

They add that Trump continues to lead among white voters and men, though his advantage among voters without a college degree has decreased from 14 points in July to 7 points in the latest survey.

The poll highlights the shifting dynamics in the presidential race, particularly after President Joe Biden ended his re-election campaign in July following a poor debate performance.

Despite Harris's growing momentum, Trump holds a narrow 45% to 43% lead over her in the seven states where the 2020 election was closest, Reuters reported.

Voter enthusiasm is reportedly high on both sides, with Reuters stating that 73% of Democratic voters expressed increased excitement after Harris entered the race, while 64% of Trump supporters are motivated primarily by their support for him.

The poll also shows that voters prefer Trump on economic issues but favor Harris on abortion policy. The Reuters/Ipsos poll is said to have included responses from 3,562 registered voters out of 4,253 U.S. adults.
