New Poll Shows Trump, Harris Tied in Wisconsin

Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are tied in a new poll of Wisconsin voters. In a head-to-head matchup between the Republican and Democratic nominees for president, the American Greatness/TIPP poll of likely and registered voters shows both Trump and Harris at 47% support. When independent and third party candidates are added, Harris garners 46% support to Trump's 45%, within the poll's +/- 3.4% margin of error. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pulls in 6% support, with 2% undecided. "The presidential race is very tight like 2020, within the margin of error," pollster Raghavan Mayur with TIPP told The Center Square. "It is probably the tightest among the battleground states." Mayur said that the economy, immigration, and national debt/government spending are the key issues that could sway independent and undecided voters in the state, with 52% listing the economy as among their top three issues and 36% citing immigration and border security. Within the economy, the price of food and inflation overall are the top concerns of voters, Mayur said. "Independents are more closer to Republicans than Democrats in terms of issues," he said. "Further, 61% feel they are worse off than four years ago" while just 33% said they are better off and the remaining are unsure. "Harris' relief rally/honeymoon advantage is nearly non-existent in Wisconsin," Mayur said. Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee shortly after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race July 21 under heavy pressure from top Democratic leaders. Democrats are set to make the nomination official at their national convention that begins Monday in Chicago. The TIPP poll surveyed 1,015 registered voters in Wisconsin, of which 976 were likely voters. The poll was conducted August 12-14 and has a margin of error of +/- 3.4%. https://www.wisconsinrightnow.com/new-poll-shows-trump-harris-tied-in-wisconsin/?feed_id=18354&_unique_id=66c2a57c46cfb
