(NBC, KYMA/KECY) – NBC News released its final national poll of the 2024 presidential campaign.

He continues to view the 2024 race as a close contest, defined by conflicting forces that have helped both Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump in their quest for the White House.

The poll shows Harris getting the support of 49% of registered voters in a head-to-head matchup, while Trump gets an identical 49%. Only 2% of voters say they are undecided.

In an expanded vote that includes third-party candidates, Trump has 47% and Harris has 46%, with a combined 7% backing other candidates or being undecided.

High interest in the elections is at the same level as in 2016 and slightly below that of 2020.

Boosting Harris: Growing Democratic enthusiasm, a 20-point lead over Trump on abortion and an advantage for Harris on which candidate looks out best for the middle class.

Helping Trump: Two-thirds of voters who believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction, a favorable assessment of Trump’s presidency (especially compared to President Joe Biden’s current performance), and Trump’s double-digit lead in the economy and the cost of living. .

However, due to the country’s Electoral College system, the presidential race will ultimately be decided by what happens in key states such as Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. And the latest polls from those states also find very narrow margins.
