Kamala Harris has widened her lead over Donald Trump in the race for the US presidency, according to the latest polling averages. While both candidates remain closely matched in key battleground states, the national polls indicate a significant shift. Recent data compiled over a 10-day period shows Harris, the Democratic nominee and current vice president, at 48.2%, while Trump, the Republican candidate and former president, stands at 44.4%. This gives Harris a 3.6-point advantage in the national polling. Pollsters emphasize that while the election will likely hinge on swing states, the growth in national polling figures is still noteworthy and could have implications for the overall race.
