A poll released on Tuesday shows former President Donald Trump within a few points of leading the typically blue state of Virginia, even as Vice President Kamala Harris continues to gain in national polls.
Harris leads Trump by a margin of 47% to 44% in a head-to-head match-up, well within the poll’s 4.5% margin of error, according to a Roanoke College poll released Tuesday. The close race in a state Republicans have not won at the presidential level in 20 years comes as Harris continues to gain momentum nationally, going from trailing Trump by five points on July 28 to leading him by two as of Aug. 20, according to The New York Times’ polling average.
