In a surprising turn of events, the latest Fox News poll reveals Vice President Kamala Harris has overtaken former President Donald Trump, gaining a two-point lead in the fiercely contested 2024 presidential race. This shift is seen as a significant setback for Trump and his campaign.
The recent survey conducted by Fox News shows a notable swing in favor of Harris, particularly among middle-class voters and Hispanic communities. The poll indicates a 3-percentage-point shift among registered voters, with Harris now leading by two points, a reversal from Trump’s one-point lead in August.
Harris’s rise is attributed to growing support from Hispanics and Independents. While Trump had a 6-point advantage among Hispanics previously, the latest figures show a dramatic shift, with Harris now enjoying a 12-point lead in this demographic. This change underscores a broader realignment of voter support, which is impacting the dynamics of the upcoming election.
As the race tightens, the latest poll results suggest a challenging path ahead for Trump, who is currently supported by just 48% of respondents. This recent shift highlights the increasing competitiveness of the 2024 presidential election and could signal further changes as the campaign progresses.
