Harris leads Trump in YouGov poll for second week in a row

Vice President Harris led former President Trump for the second week in a row in polling from The Economist/YouGov.

The poll, conducted between Aug. 4 and 6, found Harris leading Trump by 2 points among registered voters, 45 percent to 43 percent. The week before, Harris earned 46 percent support to Trump’s 44 percent among registered voters in the same poll.

Harris has had a whirlwind few weeks in the wake of former President Biden's decision to drop out of the race and endorse her.
