A new Quinnipiac University national poll for the 2024 United States presidential election has former President Donald Trump leading Vice President Kamala Harris by 2 percentage points, nationally.
The poll, conducted from July 19 to July 21, found that a total of 47% of registered voters would back the Democratic hopeful and 49% would vote for Trump in a head-to-head matchup. On the other hand, 41% would back Harris and 45% said they would support Trump in a six-way race, with 6% backing John F. Kennedy Jr., 2% supporting Green Party's Jill Stein, and Libertarian Party's Chase Oliver and independent candidate Cornel West receiving 1% each.
"The dramatic reset at the top of the Democratic ticket does little to move the race as Vice President Harris enters the fray with numbers similar to President Biden," said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy.
