play

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are in a statistical tie in battleground Wisconsin, according to the final Marquette University Law School poll released before Election Day.

Among likely voters, 50% support Harris and 49% support Trump. In the latest Marquette poll conducted in late September, Harris had a four-point advantage between both groups, but still within the margin of error.

“The race has tightened a little bit,” said poll director Charles Franklin. “If I haven’t made it clear by now, let me say it again. It shouldn’t surprise anyone if Donald Trump wins, and it shouldn’t surprise anyone if Kamala Harris wins.”

The survey was conducted between October 16 and 24. It surveyed 834 registered voters, 753 of whom are considered likely to vote, based on their voting history since 2016. The margin of error was plus or minus 4.4 percentage points for both registered and registered voters. likely voters.

The Marquette survey is ranked among the best in the country. Other surveys added by RealClearPolling.com show Trump with a slight lead in Wisconsin. In 2020, the elections in Wisconsin were decided by less than one percentage point. Franklin has noted that the Marquette poll was off by four points that year and by six points in 2016.

TO USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll A survey of 500 likely voters in Wisconsin conducted last week found Trump at 48% and Harris at 47%, with a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points.

Both campaigns frequent Wisconsin in the final days of the presidential race. Harris will be joined by famous musicians as rallies college voters at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on Wednesdaywhile Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre will join Trump in Green Bay today..

When taking into account third-party candidates like Jill Stein, Cornel West and Chase Oliver, Harris leads Trump by two points among likely voters. While support fell in the latest poll for independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., he recovered to 5%, despite dropping out of the race.

“This 9% who say, ‘I’d like to vote for one of these third-party candidates,’ could easily swing this race one way or the other,” Franklin said.
