Recent polling data reveals a shift in favor of the Democrats, with Vice President Kamala Harris leading former President Donald Trump.

What Happened: Since the Democratic National Convention, Harris has been leading Trump in at least eight different surveys. An Outward Intelligence survey, which included 2,191 likely voters, shows Harris leading by more than five points in both two-way and five-way matchups that include third-party candidates.

A recent Wall Street Journal poll shows Harris leading Trump 47%-45% when third-party candidates are included, and 48%-47% in a head-to-head race. This is the first time in over a year that Trump has trailed in a Journal survey.

Quinnipiac’s first poll of likely voters shows Harris with a 49%-47% edge, within the poll's 2.4-point margin of error. A Suffolk/USA Today poll shows Harris leading Trump by five points — 48%-43% — among likely voters.
