The latest poll from the New York Times/Siena College, which is their final before the November 5 election, has found that GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris are tied at 48 percent.
The Times said that results are "not encouraging for Ms. Harris," and that Democrats often have an edge in the popular vote over Republicans even if the Democrat candidate goes on to lose the Electoral College. This is due to the major cities, population centers in the United States, being primarily Democrat leaning.
The poll found that five percent of those who voted for Biden in the 2020 election would cast their ballot for Trump this time around, while just two percent who voted for Trump in 2020 said they would vote for Harris. Of those who did not vote in 2020, 47 percent said they would vote for Trump while 43 percent said they would vote for Harris.
While the majority of those who identified as black or Hispanic said they would vote for Harris, 12 percent of black likely voters and 42 percent of Hispanic likely voters said they would cast their ballot for Trump.
