Michigan remains a key swing state ahead of the upcoming presidential elections in the USA. The latest survey confirms that the difference between the candidates is minimal. Kamala Harris, the current Vice President, leads Donald Trump by 1 percentage point. This is the result of a survey conducted by Rasmussen Reports and American Thinker from October 24-27.
Harris with a slight edge in a key state
The study involved 908 likely voters from Michigan who responded to questions by phone and online. Harris received 49% support, while Trump garnered 48%. 1% of respondents supported another candidate, and 2% remain undecided.
The previous survey by the same organizations published two weeks ago, showed a tie between Harris and Trump, with both receiving 48%. With 15 electoral votes, Michigan is one of seven states that could determine the election outcome.
Americans will choose a president for the 60th time
On November 5, 2024, Americans will elect a president for the 60th time. In the race for the White House, seven key states (so-called swing states) will be pivotal, where in the last presidential elections, the lead of one candidate over another was no more than 3 percentage points. Three of these are industrial states from the "Rust Belt": Pennsylvania (19 electoral votes), Wisconsin (10), and Michigan (15). The others are sunny Southern states (the "Sun Belt"), which were, until recently, Republican strongholds – North Carolina (16), Georgia (16), as well as the desert states of Arizona (11) and Nevada (6).
