Polls only provide a snapshot of the situation, and there is time for new developments that can affect ratings.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has improved his chances of winning, while Democrat Kamala Harris has begun to lose her edge over her opponent. The Hill reported this on Saturday, October 12.
“Harris has a real chance to become the next president. However, the small advantage he had after a strong start to his campaign has almost disappeared,” the publication wrote.
The publication refers to the results of a survey conducted on its behalf.
“Trump leads in five of the seven swing states considered key to determining the winner. By early October, Harris had an advantage, leading in four of the seven states,” The Hill wrote.
The publication indicates that Kamala Harris has a 51% chance of winning now, although at the end of September the chances were 56%.
The publication warns that these changes in ratings do not mean a real decrease in the Democrat’s chances of winning, since the gap between the candidates was not very large to begin with.
“Changes of one or two percent can be statistical noise,” the publication said.
It will be recalled that after the debate Harris increased his lead over Trump to 5%. The debate between Trump and Harris took place on September 10. According to a CNN poll, 63% of respondents believed that Harris won the debate.
