Breaking Now News: Kamala Harris Leads Donald Trump in Nevada Poll

A recent poll of likely Nevada voters revealed Vice President Kamala Harris holds a nearly 6 percentage point lead over former President Donald Trump. This marks the largest lead for a Democrat in any presidential poll of Nevadans this cycle.

Prior to this poll, Nevada polls had been scarce since Harris replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee. The vice president has managed to close the gap that existed between Trump and Biden, with Biden never leading Trump in any public poll taken in the state since October 2023.

Key Findings of the Poll:

1. Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll in late July showed Harris with a 2 percentage point lead in the head-to-head matchup, marking Democrats' first leading poll of the cycle.
2. The Cook Political Report moved Nevada back into the "toss-up" category after previously categorizing it as "lean Republican."
3. Poll conducted by Decipher Ai's David Wolfson sampled 991 likely voters across Nevada, showing Harris leading with 49.2% support, while Trump received 43.6%.

Insights from the Poll:

• Harris' lead may be an outlier but mirrors Biden's position in the 2020 cycle when he led in Nevada by about 6 percentage points.
• Harris riding a polling honeymoon since Biden dropped out reflects a typical outcome for a Democratic nominee at this point in the cycle.

What do you think?

• Do you believe Harris's lead in the poll will hold until the election?
• Will the undecided voters play a significant role in the final outcome?
• How might external factors like economic changes impact the race?
