New poll shows Trump and Harris neck and neck nationally and in battlegrounds

Less than two weeks until Election Day, CNBC’s latest national poll finds a margin-of-error presidential contest between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

Less than two weeks until Election Day, CNBC’s latest national poll finds a margin-of-error presidential contest between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris both nationally and in key battleground states, with Trump ahead on economic issues and Harris leading on character issues including honesty and the fitness to be president.

In CNBC’s quarterly “All-America Economic Survey,” Trump gets support from 48% of registered voters, while Harris gets 46% — a 2-point spread, well within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

That narrow 2-point lead for Trump is unchanged from CNBC’s August poll, and it’s essentially unchanged from the national NBC News poll earlier this month, conducted by the same pair of bipartisan polling firms, which found the candidates tied at 48% each.

Meanwhile, an oversample of registered voters residing in the seven core battleground states — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — shows Trump ahead of Harris in those combined states by just 1 point, 48% to 47% — again, well inside the margin of error.

The pollsters who conduct the CNBC poll say inflation remains a powerful force shaping this election, with 63% of national voters saying they feel that their family’s income is falling behind the cost of living, and with nearly half of voters calling it one of their top issues for the election — up from previous CNBC surveys.
