"The Harris post-debate starburst dims to a glow as Harris enters the last weeks slipping slightly in the Rust Belt," Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said.
In what can only be viewed as good news for former President Donald Trump, one of the more left-leaning polling outfits has found him carving out a material lead in two key battleground states.
Widely regarded as one of the nation's left-leaning polls, the Quinnipiac University survey of battleground states found trump with 50% support in Michigan, compared to Harris's 47%, and 2% breaking for other candidates.
In Wisconsin, Trump led with 48% support to Harris's 46% and 2% backing someone else. He remained behind in Pennsylvania, where Harris led with 49% to his 46%. Again, 2% backed other candidates.
"The Harris post-debate starburst dims to a glow as Harris enters the last weeks slipping slightly in the Rust Belt," Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said.
Conducted Oct. 3-7, the survey questioned 1,412 likely voters in Pennsylvania and had a margin of error of +/- 2.6% in that state, meaning that contest is effectively tied.
In Michigan, they questioned 1,007 likely voters and had a margin of error of +/- 3.1%, just greater than the margin of Trump's lead. The survey questioned 1,073 likely voters in Wisconsin and had a margin of error of +/- 3.0%.
The survey is somewhat unusual in that it shows Michigan and Wisconsin breaking for Trump, but not Pennsylvania, which has generally been the most competitive of the three in other surveys.
Nevertheless, could Trump win Wisconsin and Michigan, he may not need Pennsylvania should he sweep the Sun Belt.
