A new poll from the left-wing New York Times shows President Donald Trump beating Democrat nominee Kamala Harris in multiple battleground states.
According to polling released Monday from the NY Times and Siena College, Trump is now beating Harris in Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina.
Trump is leading Harris 50-45 in Arizona, 49-45 in Georgia, and 49-47 in North Carolina, the polling found.
The survey was conducted from September 17-21.
713 registered voters were polled in Arizona, 682 in Georgia, and 682 in North Carolina.
The poll found that Trump is trusted more on immigration and the economy – the top two key issues for voters.
Meanwhile, Harris is trusted more on abortion.
In Arizona, the poll found that the most important issues were:
- The economy (26%)
- Immigration (19%)
- Abortion (17%)
A majority said Trump would be better on the economy (57%) and immigration (54%).
Meanwhile, 55% said Harris would be better on abortion.
A majority of voters, 58 percent, said they backed a proposed amendment to the state constitution that would create a right to abortion.
Just 34% said they would oppose the amendment.
Georgia respondents also identified their most important issues as:
- The economy (27%)
- Abortion (15%)
- Immigration (13%)
A majority said they trusted Trump more on immigration (54%) and the economy (54%).
Harris was favored on abortion among 54% of voters.
Sixty percent of Georgia voters said the U.S. should stop funding endless foreign wars and focus more on domestic problems.
They agree with the statement:
“We should pay less attention to problems overseas and concentrate on problems here at home.”
In North Carolina, the biggest issues in the election were:
- The economy (24%)
- Abortion (13%)
- Immigration (12%)
Trump was again favored on the economy (55%) and immigration (51%).
Harris was preferred regarding abortion (52%).
Meanwhile, lame-duck President Joe Biden’s approval was underwater in each of the states.
His disapproval rating now stands at:
- 60% in Arizona
- 61% in Georgia
- 55% in North Carolina
Trump and Harris have both focused on rallying support in these states as the campaign reaches its final stretch.
The 45th president is set to speak in Savannah, Georgia, on Tuesday, while Harris will be in Arizona this week.
Trump’s running mate JD Vance will appear in Georgia and North Carolina this week.
