Trump, Harris neck and neck in battleground states,

Former President Trump and Vice President Harris are tied in key battleground states, according to a new CBS News poll published Sunday, as Democrats rally behind Harris as their newly-official nominee.

The CBS News/YouGov poll also found Harris leading Trump by one point nationally, a much better position for Democrats than with President Biden at the top of the ticket.

The pair is tied 50-50 in battlegrounds, while Harris leads Trump 50-49 percent nationally in a head-to-head race, the poll found. When third party candidates are included, Harris extends to a two-point lead over the former president.

Harris’s campaign has opened to mass enthusiasm from Democrats after she took over for Biden, breaking fundraising recordsand drawing large crowds. That enthusiasm has also been shown in polls, with more Democrats saying they will “definitely” vote than with Biden as the nominee.
