According to the latest Marquette Law School Poll, Democratic nominee Harris is leading with 52 percent support among registered voters in Wisconsin, while the former president, Trump, trails behind at 48 percent. The same margin is observed among likely voters, with Harris securing 52 percent compared to Trump’s 48 percent.
When Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a former independent presidential candidate, joined the race, Kamala Harris garnered support from 48 percent of registered voters. Trump, on the other hand, had the backing of 44 percent, while Kennedy trailed behind at 3 percent.
Among likely voters, Harris holds a 5-point advantage over Trump in the multi-candidate matchup. She secures 49 percent of the vote, while the ex-president trails behind at 44 percent. Kennedy, on the other hand, receives a modest 3 percent.
In the earlier poll released in early September, both Harris and Trump had equal levels of support among registered and likely voters in the state. The Democratic nominee was leading by 4 points.
According to the survey, approximately half of the respondents believe that Harris will emerge victorious in November. Around 39 percent of the participants sided with Trump, while 11 percent claimed to be unsure of the outcome.
According to the poll, there has been a significant increase in enthusiasm for voting, with 67 percent of respondents expressing that they are “very enthusiastic” about casting their ballot. This is a notable rise from the 63 percent recorded in early September. Interestingly, the surge in enthusiasm is particularly evident among independents, with 50 percent of them stating that they are “very enthusiastic.” This represents a substantial increase of nearly 20 points compared to the 31 percent recorded in early September.
According to a late September poll, Harris held a 7-point lead over Trump. Among likely voters, the Democratic nominee garnered 53 percent support, while Trump received 46 percent.
The Marquette Law School Poll took place from September 18 to 26, with a total of 882 Wisconsin registered voters and 798 likely voters being interviewed. The margin of error for both groups was 4.4 percentage points.
