A CBS/YouGov poll released Wednesday shows President Donald Trump leading Kamala Harris by two points in Georgia. The poll, conducted among 1,441 registered voters, has Trump at 51% and Harris at 49%.
The poll suggests Trump has a strong advantage among male voters, leading by 13 points, while Harris leads among women by seven. These gender dynamics are likely to play a crucial role in the final outcome of the election, as Harris continues to struggle with male voters.
Economic issues are a central concern for Georgians, with 65% of voters saying the country is on the wrong track. Voters favor Trump’s economic policies over Harris’ by a 14-point margin, and 79% report that their income is not keeping up with inflation.
While 59% of voters support legal abortion in most cases, opinions are divided over Georgia’s six-week abortion ban. Harris has campaigned heavily on the issue of abortion rights, but it remains unclear whether this will sway enough voters in Georgia, where economic concerns seem to dominate.
As Trump gains momentum on key issues like the economy, Harris faces an increasingly difficult battle in Georgia. With the state’s voters expressing dissatisfaction with the current direction of the country, the Harris-Walz ticket may struggle to close the gap in this crucial race.
